For there is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so. Hamlet
William Shakespeare
An event happens in your life. The event is just that, an event; it has no connotations of severity, positive or negative. The feelings about it is a decision from within. We alone decide whether it is good or bad, positive or negative, painful or joyful. Once the decision is made in response to the event, the brain takes over and provides the proper emotion to accompany the decision.
Although many of our responses have now become conditioned to reoccurring events, it is necessary to become aware of the fact that it is all happening by choice and we can consciously choose to change the conditioning and enjoy a more responsible and joyous life of mastery.
We all need to accept the fact that anything relating to and happening in our lives is our responsibility and can be controlled by us. It is somehow comforting to blame conditions in our lives on others, circumstances,upbringing, DNA; and often, even God. Do this little exercise: decide to take action and follow a plan and you will overcome whatever it is in your life that is undesirable. By the same means you can bring about the desirable. Do this regularly and you will see that others may have caused it but you must take responsibility for changing it. After a few times of successfully changing conditions, notice the power surge and the expansion of confidence in your mind.
Life is all about thought. It has the power to move energy and create whatever circumstances we want but we must first accept full responsibility. To get a more thorough understanding of how this works, go to my website: charles-king-masterful-living .com and read the free e-book: Lifelong Lessons From a Schoolyard Bully. I believe this will make it all clear.
