The Buddha was known to have said: "We are shaped by our thoughts. We become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves."

To have a mind that is pure sounds sublime. Impossible, perhaps. But there are things we can do to help us live our best life:

1. Meditation and creative visualization allows our subconscious minds to evoke and show us what needs more attention.

2. Creating a vision board is a non verbal method of visually capturing what's important to us.

3. Setting goals and making plans to achieve them is the first phase of bringing our intentions to life.

4. Writing positive affirmations and saying them out loud every day (morning and night) helps us remember who we want to be and what we want to achieve.

5. Celebrating every success along the way - no matter how big or small - helps to reinforce the importance of what we're working toward.
