Thoughts

Thinking alone is one of the most tiring job in the whole world, and not only is it tiring, it also affect everything around you from your mood to your facial expression to your utterances and behavior.

Knowing a little about what thought is, its processes, we now need to understand how to put it to use so as to achieve an optimal result in anything.
