I had the most amazing experience. I realized that I am always the source of my experience. I am the one who makes me happy or unhappy. It is I who can tell if I am in bliss or emotional pain. How? I do this by choosing what beliefs I focus on and the stories I make up. My point of power, always, lies in the beliefs that I choose and the intentions that I set.
We generally live in a stimulus / response reality. In other words, we live as if we have no other option around what we feel or do. Someone yells at us and we react with anger or fear. Someone tells us that they are not happy with something we did, and we get hurt and withdraw. We generally think that the “spur” caused our response, and in an effort to feel better, we usually try to get someone to stop doing what is causing our distress.
Consider for a moment that between the stimulus and the response, there is a belief or a story. In reality, we are responding to belief, not to the stimulus itself. If you yell, and I think your yelling is bad for me, I will likely respond with anger or fear. But if I think that your screaming is giving me the perfect opportunity to practice being centered, or that your complete self-expression is a good thing, then I might feel at peace or even excited by your screaming. My belief determines my experience, not the encouragement.
Changing beliefs is relatively easy and brings immediate relief. It is where we really have the total power to determine the quality of our life experience. By changing what we believe, we change what we see, and by doing so, the world changes. You can drastically change your work environment, your relationship, your health, and your state of mind just by examining and changing beliefs.
