In the Trilogy of Life series, I’ve laid out the wisdom that I have acquired under the following 3 themes summarised below.
The ‘Live’ series explore your existence. This is the part of the Trilogy that has a big impact on how your journey of life pans out. The crucial components focus on building a strong base for your life. It helps you build a rock solid foundation that can give you an inner strength. Without it, you could become a spectator in life, watching what others do and being envious of their results. Worse, you could be on the couch wandering what’s going on and being oblivious to events around you. You risk being blind-sided by unfolding events. Often couch sitters are the victims of changing circumstances and are ill-prepared for what lies ahead.
The ‘Love’ series focuses on emotions and how to harness the energy that emotions produce. I’ve deliberately subtitled this section as ‘Love’ as I rate this emotion as the most crucial for a contented life. In other words, love all that you do. If you don’t love what it is you do then why do it? As an alternative, learn to love what you do or use it as a stepping stone towards an end. This will become clearer in future posts.
Scientist used to think that there were two brains, a thinking reasoning brain and an emotional feeling brain. The current view of the brain is that we all have a feeling brain that thinks.
The ‘Learn’ series is about our never ending capacity to learn and adapt.
“The brain is like a parachute. Both work at their best when opened”.
We all have the capacity to learn. The current state of dementia and Alzheimer’s thinking is that to keep our brains healthy we need to keep challenging our brains and keep learning. An inactive brain soon withers and slowly deteriorates. It’s like any other part of the body or set of skills
