The mind is such a beautiful thing that God has given us to solve life's challenges. I describe it as an immortal machine that has endless scenarios of application when its potential is harnessed adequately by activating its unimaginable possibilities.
As powerful as the mind is, it can only respond to those stimuli that excite it to create. Creativity excites the mind, and those who have come to know this secret always dwell within the domain of the mind and engage it to develop innovative ideas and answers and solutions to life's questions and problems.
Such individuals don't run away from the troubles; instead, they run towards them as if to say, I have found an opportunity for the mind to work, to be stretched, and come up with ways and perspective which seemingly was not seen even though it existed.
