“I teach personal development and understand that decisions come from what we know.
Our memories are activated and the attached emotion (which attaches itself at inception) provides our actions and reactions in the now. You can only hold one memory at a time thus one emotion. So you get to choose if you want to happy or sad. So how you feel is up to you. Therefore you are your own destiny.
We all know that knowledge is king, but without action it’s fruitile. Imagine stepping into an elevator and wanting to go to the fourth floor but not pushing the button.
The door closes – yet nothing happens. You are right where you are even if an hour passes.
You have to make the first step (push the button to the forth floor). If you do not make the effort nothing happens. Therefore if nothing changes (and you just stand in the elevator) then nothing changes (you are right where you started).”
