“Think. Think. Think. We have so many strong opinions about things that we’ve never even researched. We walk around hating people, and their beliefs, based on other people’s opinions.” — Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist
You ever thought about a phrase you hear all the time and realized it makes no sense? Well, something like that is what got me thinking today.
Today’s episode is all about thinking for yourself. Too many of our core beliefs are based purely on other people’s opinions. At some point, we have to ask ourselves why we believe what we believe, and if it’s true for us. Can we prove it? Does it stand up to questioning? Does research support it, or is it just what we’ve always heard, thought, and believed?
It’s okay to let something go when you realize it’s not based in fact. It’s okay to believe differently than your parents did. It’s okay to realize that you have been automatically following certain beliefs and they don’t actually line up with your values or priorities. It’s TOTALLY okay to choose differently once you begin to think for yourself. And it’s okay to apologize if necessary.
Check out today’s podcast. It’s a good one.
Blessings!
