Mental Laundry: Turning Thoughts into Optimism
Mental Laundry is my first published book, and I am incredibly thankful to be writing to the Authors’ Lounge about it! It’s been an amazing journey bringing this project to life, and I hope my words resonate with readers as much as they did with me while writing.
One time when I was talking about my book and philosophies, I once had a friend tell me, “It sounds like your diary about your mental optimistic progress.” She couldn’t have been more right! It really was a book of putting together all the thoughts I had used to help myself when I was in bad times,” and THAT may have been the best way to put it. Easily said, my book is about the mental aspirations, phrases, and philosophical ideas that I used to promote my CHOICE of positive thinking. Life is very hard! That is a fact. Assuredly, it is also the fact of how you take it that makes everything heavy or just a bad moment to learn from.
From Struggle to Inspiration: The Birth of Mental Laundry
The beginning of this journey sparked the inspiration at its start. It’s actually interesting for me when I get the question of my inspiration, as well as the question of how LONG it took me to write my book. The answer is simply that the words spilled out of me!
There was a chunk of time that became a blur to me when I was mentally going downhill with thoughts of the pessimist world. However, once I had found the flip of words to change my thoughts, I had ideas, my own philosophies, and poetic words that just flew out of me! I would let my heart speak, and just write (or type) the words that would come to my mind as the moment struck. Then one day, it all just really came together as a unity for how I was mindfully changing for my better self! With my inspiration at its peak, I joined all my “notes” together, and one by one, the inspiration created pages. Also, I was never shy to share my thoughts. So really, the motivation to show how open I was to share my mental foundation was too easy. I thank my gram for this, she raised me very openly with love and honesty.
Passing the Torch of Inspiration and Growth
To continue on for inspirational motive, it also came from the connection of me being so grateful for all the speakers and writers whom shared THEIR aspirations and words for personal growth. I was so happy to have their words, to develop MY OWN, that I almost felt obligated to share my mental journey of how the MENTAL CHOICE is our own. Following the flow with an inspiration towards those who may be on their own journey like I was. Heck, I’m still on my journey as each day comes. We all need to find our OWN way, and the journey of external influences only offers the best because of what we all can personally make out of it. I could have never found myself without the expressive help of others who shared their insights. The cycle continues where I hope to offer the words to others, that I formed for myself, of which became my REBOOST and BLOOM affirmations ♡
A Universal Message for Every Mindful Seeker
My situation only shows more uniqueness when considering my intended audience for readers of interest. Weird to admit, I think that there is no generalization for a group or audience that I focused on, beyond the audience of any mind seeking to find their happy mindfulness. From youthful adolescence to middle age adulthood, and even for elderly minds who still live with questions, I think almost anyone could find a phrase of mine to fuel their inner purpose towards finding themselves. I guess the simpler way I can put it is, that my audience is anyone who has an interest in mindfulness. Anyone who is looking for more philosophical ideals as a way of finding their best mindset towards positive personal growth.
In that, there is so much to hope for when a single mind expresses ideas in a book of words for others to witness! With my thoughts rinsed and cleaned, my hopeful purpose is the goal for my readers to find another way to develop their own mental foundation. With the words I used to help out myself, I’m sure other individuals will like the ideas also. Times of today, especially when very rough, can be the most belittling time for some. I can only hope that any individuals going through their own battles, who would find my book, would see the open observation of creating THEIR OWN MINDFUL WIN.
For example, I like to always say that in today’s time, advice always seems to either be A or B. One way or the other; No middle. Bad apple versus good apple. Reversedly, the way I found myself, and how I want to live, was by finding MY WAY to C [SEE] my own vision with the A and B I was influenced by. All I can hope is for my readers to see their own way to THEIR mental prosperity ♡
Embracing the Journey and Finding Purpose
I’ll be very honest, I have no idea what my goals or plans for Mental Laundry are. I wrote my words as a way to officially express them beyond my own understanding. Sometimes, by keeping things in thought, it’s hard to understand them. However, when I wrote out my feelings, I felt so much more alive to my understanding. After I published Mental Laundry, it became a matter of working with myself to see the next steps for where I may take this. Patience, pursuit, progress. No matter what I do, I continue every day in search of myself all the more. Knowing that the goal of being even better towards all others and my surroundings is my main pursuit. Living each day knowing that what is meant to be will be and finding acceptance to that. After all, this is my first book, and an author’s life is no easy journey. More than anything, I’m just proud that I actually did it. If it’s one dream for a future goal of my publishing, it would be the reward of remembrance (of me or my words) by those who connect to my book for themselves.
Living Authentically Through Chaos and Connection
On a final insider note mentioning more about myself, I just wanna live a fun life of loving connections! I have had a very wild life, and it took that chaos for me to find myself. I think I have always been a mind to “think outside the box.” Even when I was young, I was always expanding more ideas. Progressively, it is a personal trait that blooms even more the older I get. I take things very emotionally, and I never wanted to resort to being neutral in order to handle emotional events. Mental Laundry is my way of really looking at the whole picture of each situation. I think this world can be a very simple and loving place, but the hard-headed ways of doing things were never in sync with me. Therefore, I found my own remedy to this world for the good and the bad. For me, it simply lies in looking at everything the way it truly presents itself and making my peace with it as another step of my lively journey.
