I came to the realization today that realtity is merely based on what I believe it to be. I knew this for a longer time but today, the thought suddenly clicked. The best simple example I can think of is my personal relation with fitness. I'd like to be fit and healthy and buff, but as long as I believe that I'm a "skinny guy trying to get big" I will never reach my goals, because "skinny guy" is part of the view about self. To truly make a change and reach my goals, I should drop the "skinny" and "trying to get big" mindset and morph it into something more sustainable and positive, like "guy who works out and is healthy." or something like that. (among other things of course). I'm not sure how to actually change the actual believe about myself just yet, but realizing all of this feels like a big leap in the right direction. At the very least I'm feeling quite motivated to become the man I know I can be. This is yet another interesting turn life has taken for me recently, and I am happy and grateful for all my decisions and luck in the past few months. Actually feeling good.
