Our programming, beliefs and how we think do impact our mental and emotional lives but mostly this is just more new agey bullshit that attempts to convince everyone that their fate in life, their health, their financial circumstances are all based on their thoughts and beliefs like the book “The Secret.”
I say bullshit. Personality type has much more to do with peoples habits and lifestyles and coping mechanisms unless you do suffer from a certified mental health condition which, obviously, can effect all temperaments. Every personality type will be motivated in different ways by different things and while our thoughts do create our feelings to a large degree the fact is, shit happens, for better or for worse in life that has nothing to do with our beliefs.
Whats insulting about this new agey crap is that it presumes everyone experiencing something negative has brought it on themselves which is simply not true and loaded with gulit tripping shit. Thoughts effect our moods but beliefs have little to do with anything.
Yep, because of my thoughts and beliefs I created the recession that financially devastated me and had I only believed I could remain financially stable and comfortable the interest rates never would have tanked, I wouldn’t have lost my work and been forced to live off my savings until it was depleted and lose everything. Uh huh…my beliefs created that scenario.
Bite me bullshit new agey lunatics! lol
