When the mind changes the world changes...

i think you are absolutely right.because the look of world is based on how do we see it.if we see with an eye eager to find imperfetion then world is imperfect to us.and in the other case the world is perfect to us..

I think, that in general, you are right. There are times when you are going to be sad without choosing that emotion, but after a time, you inevitably have to decide to continue to be sad or not. I am usually pretty happy, as I choose not to let the things of this world get to me too much. I do my best to live by the "Let Go, and let God" motto. It sure makes life easier.

I agree with you saying that the world changes when your mind or thinking changes. I have seen very rich people who are unhappy, but poor and people in difficulties who are very happy. It depends on how you take things. It is important to be an open minded person. You can think about people in difficulties when you are in a small problem. It will help you to thank god by realizing that you are in a small problem, but there are lots of people in this world who are having big problems.

It can be amazing how we look at our lives. hat spins through our minds can have both positive and negative changes on the world around us. it may not seem what we can contribute matters, but it does. As we change, so does the world.

I agree.Sometimes it is hard to change our life,not to say changing the world.But we do can change our mind.If we look at the matter from another aspect, it might be quite different from it was before.Therefore,no matter how poor a condition we are in, we should keep a positive attitude,after all,everything will be fine some day.

If one could change peoples mindset to focus on the same goal, to make the world better for others, i believe the world would be a better place.

I think that's very true. It's up to us to decide whether we will be happy or sad, whether we will enjoy the life we've been given or whether we will complain and gripe about everything. Happy people are usually healthier, so the mind really does make a difference in our lives.

i think the environment one is end depends on happiness more then the outlook someone has on life.

There are people who search all their lives to find happiness never realizing that happiness is no more than a choice. So many people allow events and others to decide their life. The world will change as soon as we decide to choose. It doesn't matter what everyone else is doing. It's our choices that count. Create and shape our lives. It rests in our own hands. I will always be happy.I made that choice long ago!!

Certainly agree, once our view of things changes the world that surrounds us will also change accordingly. It's how we see things that makes the difference in our lives.

Yup well said man. I agree with you. Some say that god's greatest mistake was that he gave man the ability to think within the mind but it also turned out to be a boon. Man has reached the depths of the earth and as high as the moon with the help of his mind only and nothing more. Man with the help of his mind has done things some which had a meaning and others which did not. Some he had done for his selfish needs and others because he wanted to move people. Depending on what he has done some may be good and for others it may not be so good. It is the mindset of people which figures as to how should one think and do so. People learned that seeing is not believing. Some of the good things also came from this mind like kindness,love,compassion,humanity etc. As every coin has two sides, everyone and every mind also has two sides and depending on the conditions and the surroundings they come out. Cheers!

I have never heard that statement before but I would have to agree with it. We can choose to be content with our lives or not. I have met people that always seem to be down and never happy with their lives. No amount of encouragement will lift their spirits. It is their choice, for whatever reason, to lead an unhappy life. I have a friend that I work with at the food bank that is always upbeat. The clue to her attitude can be found in each email she sends out. Her signature at the end of each message says "Choose to have a great day!" She obviously chooses to be happy and content with her life. My sister told me once of a visit with her therapist. She was full of despair, having a hard time finding anything good in her life. The therapist told her "Get out of your head. You don't live in your head." When we spend too much time thinking about our own worries and woes we get lost in our own heads. It changes how we view the world around us. Thus, "when the mind changes, the world changes." I belive that we can do as my pastor has often said, "purpose in your heart..." He is usually refering to some spiritual decision but I believe we can purpose in our hearts to be content with what we have and to have a positive attitude. And also, remember, we can choose to be happy. That will change the world around us.
