What is Presence of Mind:

The ability to remain calm, self control and take quick and positive sensible action is defined presence of mind and it is followed by another two powerful qualities that is observation skills and logical reasoning. Presence of mind is the quality or ability to think clearly and act quickly in an emergency or any challenging situations without getting panic and fear. In other words we can say it as presence intellect.

How is it important for us to have presence of mind,observation skills,logical reasonin:

The presence of mind, observation skills and logical reasoning can easily get us out of many complex problems, can protect from many dangers. The presence of mind makes us quick responders and we become fearless. If we have observation skills and are logical reasoning then we will be able to understand the difference between right and wrong, fake and reality. Presence of Mind boosts our confidence and makes us energetic from within. Presence of mind, Observation skills, and logical reasoning complement each other, leaving one another is incomplete. In order to be 100% engaged in any work and get success we must be good observers, try to understand with logic and have presence intellect.

I will tell you a short story of my life about the magic of the presence of mind.

One day my friend and I went out on a bike ride and suddenly fell into the high security zone. If you break the rules and enter the high security zone, you will be fined as much as the penalty. We didn't know about it and even we didn't notice. We regain consciousness and are startled when the security police men try to stop us. I'm really scared. My friend took the bike straight to the security guard and said "I was coming to you, if you could help me to find where the B-16 quarter is, what is the exact street it is." The moment the situation changed, the security guard who was about to punish us tried to manage us with sympathy. He really thought we were probably on the wrong track and really wanted help. This is the intellect, presence of mind of my friend save us from punishment and fine.

Only our presence of mind can save us in all these cases so we must take care of it and find a way to make it sharper. Many believe that many people are born with the presence of mind but neuroscience has now shown that we can actually develop these skills if we want to. In the course of life, as the black cloud of negative thoughts surrounds it, with uncertainty and excessive work pressure, family pressure takes away our focus, takes away our imagination. Gradually we lose our patience, our ability to observe and our ability to reason and our Presence of Mind rusts.

How can we sharpened our presence of mind, observation skills and logical reasoning:

I can suggest some important points to develop your presence of mind as well as observation skills and logical reasoning.

Feel, listen and observe any situation attentively: When you feel, hear and observe any situation very well, you can prepare yourself for the best solution. In fact, each of us have a very powerful mind. We represent external events to this mind through three senses, namely, feelings, auditory and visual. The better we use 3 senses, the clearer the information will be to our mind and the better it will be able to prepare its response. You need to be consciously aware of what is happening in front of you, so that you can better represent to your mind about that event. You have to listen, see and feel very well to get deeper into the incident and then you will be able to respond perfectly.

Set aside time for yourself: Everyone should set aside a certain portions of time for themselves every day in a regular basis. At that time only you will be with yourself whether it is twenty minutes or 1 hour. It is best if you can find a time early in the morning or before going to bed at night that no one will disturb you. At this time you can meditate or visualise, sit quietly and think about the beautiful moments of life or you can talk to yourself in positive language. Make sure your thoughts are positive and think more about yourself. It will be a little difficult at first because you have to do everything consciously. After a while it becomes a habit, you will see positive thoughts will come all the time. And your brain will become much more active, your powers of observation will increase, your ability to understand by reasoning will increase and of course the presence of mind will be alert. It is very important to keep your mind in the right state to speed up any work, to do it at the right time and in the right way. But most people do not want to spend a little time for the excuse of high work pressure or lack of time. If you give yourself a little pure time for your mind, only this can reduce your stress, increase efficiency.
