The Quality of Our Thoughts Defines Our Reality

istock_000001764533xsmall1-300x199 The Quality of Our Thoughts Defines Our Reality“ Each of us tends to think we see things as they are, that we are objective. But this is not the case. We see the world, not as it is, but as we are—or, as we are conditioned to see it. When we open our mouths to describe what we see, we in effect describe ourselves, our perceptions, our paradigms.”
-Steven Covey

 

The quality of our thoughts and beliefs define our reality.  When I am paying attention, I can see this principle at work every moment of my day.

Ego Takes a Holiday

gift-giving-2-253x300 Ego Takes a Holiday

Gift giving during the holidays can be a dodgy endeavor. It is a time of year when Egos and social conventions become entwined in a high stakes game of give and take with relationships and status on the line.  Governing it all is a complex, unwritten code that dictates what we can and cannot accept, and who we can or cannot accept it from. It can all get pretty confusing.
