Mind Bullies

Mind Bullies-Chapter 1

A fresh new morning,birds chirping and singing,freshness of the air filling up the breaths,eyes sparking to the rising sun and an omnipresent urge to give everything to this very day and make it the best shot.

With my mind still and me suddenly pumped up with the feeling and positivity enveloping my body and  soul,I decided to gift myself the most fruitful day ahead. Suddenly all creative ideas kept pouring into my mind(made a choice with one of the many ideas),stilled my mind to soak into the same, assembled all the requisites around and with a spark in my eyes (purely determined) was just about to give the best shot....
       The mind that was silent uptill now, was in a mood to showcase its precious presence and came up with a suggestion. Since until then I believed that the mind was assisting me towards making my day so I took its suggestion which was to meditate before starting the day...Hmmm good idea, well justified and took a gentle pause to convey a message to myself that come-on it's a lil' request from my mind and indeed seems to be a healthy one that infact would increase my efficiency for the rest of the day and thus I decided to go for it.
              Aaaaaaaaaooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..... starting with 6 really deep exhalation and inhalation with aum(sound that is believed to exist before the dawn of time)with my spine comfortably erect,fingers clasped with each other ,eyelids gently moving down with fading light and about to begin my meditation session. Whoa...Whoa ....Whoa...Just At this very moment my mind again pops up with an another astonishing idea(according to the mind) for me that  follows..."Hey before beginning your session why don't you take a shower 🚿 do all other essentials like having a glass of luke warm water followed by a light breakfast and then proceed with the meditation." It further adds that it is advising so to cut off all the possible disturbances that may come up to my way of making a great day. Aaahhhhhh..a deep pause once again(just a formality) before giving a handshake to my mind and moved ahead to have a shower,did all the clean up stuff,had my breakfast ofcorse prior to it I quenched my thirst(a virtual one though) with a glass of luke warm water as prescribed by my Dr.Mind.
          It was 11 am(2/4th of my productive hours) by the time I finished my second prescribed job. Now finally I approached towards the 1st prescribed job,i.e meditation before coming to my core task that I was once determined to do in the morning itself(seems to be the hardest level to conquer).And hereby I posed like an yogi(who is kind of in meditation for years) knowing that there is zero cost for pretending and thus with sheer composure and balance and definitely with mountain high dedication to have a meditative mind(too high kind of aspiration for the time being) slowly and steadily  strived to keep my mind on my breaths but yaa my mind has as it had too many escapes to flee away.
      The first breathing got completed in the initial seconds followed by the next and boommm....guess what...my mind took me to a fantasy world of angels garnished by endless celebrations bringing an end to my journey of being an yogi. By now my mind seems to come upto me wearing a black hoodie(trying to sync black to the lil' devil mind) and showcasing it's evil smile that also revealed me about the tricks it played till now to keep me out of the zone I wanted to be in since morning.
          Hmmm....now what do you think readers,even after knowing the cunning deeds of the mind ,will the protagonist be able to rule over it and Chase his dreams with sheer passion and dedication or the mind has got some more Trump cards..stay tuned to know and reflect the same by keeping yourself in the place of the protagonist and relate if your mind too plays the same tricks ...
