Everyone creates their own world dependent on their experiences, perceptions, interpretations and imagination…. So in actual fact there are 7 billion versions of this world! What an interesting concept described by Mark Newey in the naked “I”….. but when you think about it, it’s unbelievably true!
When you think of it like that, it’s more obvious why so many struggle with mental health issues. So here’s another thought: Don’t judge without ALL the facts! Getting ALL the facts may be impossible, but just your perception of what you see is potentially inaccurate. Next time you’re stressed or angry by someone else’s actions, try and look at another perspective.
Neurolinguistic programming (NLP) works on the assumption that everyone tries their best in any situation. May be their best isn’t good enough for you, but at least they’re trying!
Only you can change your mindset, actions and subsequently how you feel…. Take a walk and reflect on a situation as more than one person can be right and everyone deserves to feel how they choose whether you like it or not…. But, think about how your actions or reactions affect someone’s day.
Getting the balance of self confidence and self esteem without crushing that of others is a real gift. Live life true to yourself with authenticity and I think you’ll be living in happiness.
