Mindfullness To Self Actualize

[Elton]

Here I will like to document how I'm using mindfulness to self actualize

Last week I saw a self discipline vedio in which I learnt that distracting oneself with other sites when tempted helps from avoiding craving.

I noticed that the temptation was from within.

So when I would 'see' or 'feel' (internal) something related to smoking I would turn my attention outside my skull and see whats reality and come out of my mind... This would help me distract myself. 

The temptation was also be outside many times and not in my mind but the ones inside require more mindfulness.... 

After dinner and desert I would 'feel' intensive craving and then I would ask myself why do I want to smoke?  If I wouldn't get a logical reply I would not smoke.

However after 5 days my mind rationalised itself to smoke as I saw in a self discipline vedio that I could have cheat days for easing out the process...

Thus mindfulness played a very important role when combined with self discipline techniques and self enquiry..

How to be ruthlessly effective in mindfulness? 

Do Vipassana meditation 

Practice mindfulness meditation outside meditation 

Do it every single day.
