Prompt #8

Richard talks about controlling your thoughts like choosing your clothes. He means that we can control the things that we think. An example would be to control yourself to think positive rather than negative. Another example would be to control your mind to keep yourself calm in intense situations. This is hard thing to do, but with a lot of hard work and practice, it can be done. The mind is very complex, as showed by creating entire alternate reality simulations when you are asleep, and you don't even know that it was fake until you wake up. The mind can do extraordinary things as long as it has the proper training and time. So, with a little meditations, your thoughts can be controlled and be under your will.
