### *Your stories run your life. My stories run my life.*

<b/>
All of us walk around with an inner dialog, an inner narrative going on in our minds and for most of us, it is our own worst enemy.

It critiquing, it's complaining, it's judging, it's just an overall negative presence in our lives.

And if you are not aware of it, if you're not conscious of it, it has a very very negative effect on your reality.

The good news is, is that once you become aware of it, you can start rewriting the script in your mind. Our entire experience is subjective in life. There's no objective world out there. We are all the subjects filtering this reality through our own minds. And our stories, and the meaning we assign to everything that happens to us, dictates our reality, it's as simple as that. And if yours is negative, if you're not living the life you want, if you're feeling depressed and anxious and like you can't get anything right in your heart, in yourself, that voice can be changed. It's all up to you, you're writing the story, it's not reality, it's your filter of reality.

Now, if we have these stories going on in our mind for many years, you can't just change it within one day, that's not how it works. But once you become aware of it, you can start slowly shifting it towards the reality you want to create for yourself.

*To give you an example*
> ***A setback happens, something happens that doesn't go your way. You've set a goal, perhaps, and there's an obstacle that comes up. One story is, this always happens, life is so hard. Why can't I get anything right? Why can't anything ever go my way?***

What is that story? How does that story make you feel? It doesn't make you feel positive, it doesn't energize you. It depletes your energy, it creates feelings of hopelessness and despair.

*The same event can happen to someone else and they say:*

> ***You know what? This is just part of the process. This is necessary to get towards my goal. This is making me stronger, this is a lesson that I can take so I can learn from it and move forward, and be a better person.***

The same exact event, completely different meaning assigned to it and story that's going on the person's mind to create that reality.

*Another example is:*

> ***You made a commitment perhaps and you've got to get up early and the alarm goes off and you tell yourself, you know what? It's not that really important, I can do it later, I'm just going to sleep in, I just really need sleep. And then you sleep in, and you wake up.***

You're already 10 steps behind and you haven't even started towards your goal, you haven't started towards the commitment that you've made.
You've already failed!

*The other side of it is:*

> ***The alarm goes off, you haven't got much sleep, you've got to get up. I've got to get this done today, I made a commitment, it's time to get to work. You only live life once, it's time to get this done.***

Completely different story running through your mind, completely different dialog, completely different experience. These all run through our minds, these all are going on a regular basis, and the more you can become conscious of it and realize you're the scriptwriter and you assign meaning to every experience it happens to you. So realize it's your story that has to change, the outside experience will never change if you are in the habit of telling yourself negative stories. You take yourself with you wherever you go.

If you're a negative story generator, even if something good happens, you're going to find the negative. Even if something amazing happens in your life, you're going to pick it apart and find the negatives because you're a negative storyteller. That's who you are, that's the pattern in your mind.
Fix that, switch it, lean and move towards the positive. Inspiration can be found in everything. If you can't find it, you aren't looking hard enough, do not forget that.

Thanks
