Be aware of the snowball effect of your thinking

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 

our negative and insecure thinking can spiral out of control. Have you ever noticed how uptight you feel when you’re caught up in your thinking? And, to top it off, the more absorbed you get in the detailsof whatever is upsetting you, the worse you feel. One thought leads to another, and yet another, until at some point, you become incredibly agitated.

Needless to say, it’s impossible to feel peaceful with your head full of concerns and annoyances. Thesolution is to notice what’s happening in your head before your thoughts have a chance to build any momentum. 

The sooner you catch yourself in the act of building your mental snowball, the easier it is to stop. You stop your train of thought before it has a chance to get going.

    Any chance you can expand on the above quote? especially with regards to when the thoughts have gained momentum and are controlling you at times?

     

    Thank you
