You are the product of what you decided about what you’ve observed.

Your mind is a collection of definitions.

Your life is a collection of experiences that you gave meaning to.

Nothing that passed your awareness, did so with a pre-determined meaning.

You assigned it form, gave it a label, put it into your story a certain way.

What overall theme does your life tell?

One of struggle? A dance? A lesson?

How do you define you?

A fighter? A guide? A helper?

Is this really true or are you only seeing how you WISH it were?

Would others say so? What do your relationships say? What does your wallet say? What does your calendar say? What would your obituary say?

Does it make your expand or shrink to think about?

If it makes you shrink, you can change it.

YOU gave it meaning. Therefore, it is still indefinite. It can be re-assigned.

If you believed this, would you make any new definitions?

Would you turn your life story into one of triumph? Of love? Of gratitude?

You can change your entire life by deciding how to define what you observe.

In doing this, you change what you experience.

In changing how you experience your life, you change who you are.
