Joy of an Inquisitive Mind

 


    Having an inquisitive mind is a gift from God.  It means you have the ability to work through situations, make decisions, and find what you are looking for.  Your questions can lead to logic instead of panic or over reacting.  This applies to negative thoughts too.  You can train yourself to see them for what they are and restructure them to preserve your joy.
    It all starts with focusing on the positive.  Allow your positive mind frame to structure your questions.  The questions you ask can shift your mind from focusing on one thing and seeing it with a different perspective.  If you are stuck in the negative ask a simple question and see if you can change it to a positive perspective.
    Frame your questions for the mind to go to a good place instead of directly to the negative.  For an example: instead of what do you hate about your job, ask what do you like about your job.  It leads your mind to the positive instead of the negative.  You can also stop other people from asking you questions that take your mind to negative places.  If people do not bring life into your life, then keep your distance.
    You have to train your mind to focus on the positive.  The reworking starts with your questions and the inner dialog that you keep going in your mind.  As you change your mind patterns, you will notice that your moods are better and you feel better.  You have to get your mind to focus on gratitude, achievement, and loving thoughts to uphold a joyful life.
    Once you have started to train your mind to ask questions that bring a positive twist through simple questions, you can start probing deeper.  Start asking questions that really get you digging deep into your relationships and where you are right now in life.  You can write down a question every day and spend the day writing down the answer.  It will help you remember why you love the things you once loved.
    The point is to have a joy filled life with meaning.  You have the control, but do you have the inquisitive mind to format the questions to get the results that you want?  You have to power to stop the negative thoughts before they gain any power over you.  Develop your inquisitive mind to become creative, excited, and enjoy the small moments.
