“What’s happening is merely what’s happening. How you feel about it is another matter.”
~ Neale Donald Walsch, Conversations with God
It’s your thoughts and judgments, my friend, not the event, that determine how you feel. Two different people may experience the exact same event and to one it may be no big deal while to the other it’s devastating. We see, experience, and judge things based on our belief structure — our beliefs are like filters that we view through.
Notice how when you change your thoughts you change how you feel. Interesting, don’t you think?
Well, beliefs are more deeply ingrained thoughts, especially those with strong conviction behind them, hence they wield more power. So when you change your beliefs, you not only change how you feel, you will change the course of your life.
This is worth exploring. Trust me.
