That choice changes the meaning you make out of your feelings. Which changes… everything.
Your potential in life is not limited by what happens to you, it’s limited by what you believe what happened means about you.
But the meaning you make out of things is not as mental as many believe it is. Meaning making is a subconscious game. Your subconscious is the ultimate trickster. Many speak of the “subconscious mind” but your subconscious is a multidimensional energetic system that reveals itself in the way you think, the way you feel, the way your physical body presents, and more. Most people don’t actually believe what they think/say they believe.
Which is also why most thought work approaches to healing/transformation are so limited. And lead many people to thinking they ve “done the inner work”… they “get it” and are able to speak the language of transformation… and yet… much remains the same in their experience of life. Some change has occurred. But change through the mental plane is generated through willpower, which overrides your emotional/energetic system and almost always leads to burnout/personal or health crisis.
Change through the mental plane is also inherently limited by your beliefs… no matter how much you use your willpower to try to change your mind. Your emotional/energetic system stays attuned to the Truth of what you believe about reality. Who you Be, what you can Do/Have in life, what the nature of humanity/ life itself actually is.
The more you attune to your emotional/energetic system, the more you attune to the Truth of what you believe internally about reality, the more choice you have in making lasting change in your outer reality.
The less you judge/resist/try to get rid of some feelings and pedestalize/cling to/seek other feelings, the less you will feel a victim to a fleeting feeling… and the more you’ll be able to discern what information that feeling is revealing to you, about you. Relating to your emotions/ energetic system is the most powerful, potent, holistic, depthful approach to assessing and altering your meaning making… which has the potential to alter your entire experience of reality… transforming your entire life. From the inside out. As who you Be, through what you Do, to what you Have.
