Want a reality check?


Or is it the other way round theatre is for people who cannot cope with reality?

Try this, put your stories down in writing.

Put down on paper your thoughts about what is not working in your life.

Whatever you do not like put it down on paper.

Whoever you do not like and the reasons why put it down on paper.

Simple sentences, what you don’t like, who you don't like.

Why?

Because your mind is brilliant at justification and rationalization.

Look at what you have written and start checking it out.

Question is this true?

Is this objective reality?

Or is this just what I have been telling myself?

Is this just my story?

What would happen if I looked at it from the opposite direction?

Turn it round, reverse it and see how it looks.

This means take out the she or he and put in yourself I.

Really truly read it now with yourself in the place of the other person or event.

If you are honest then observe how you can now see situations and people through different eyes.

Time to check out your reality, start today.
