What emotions, feelings and events are you reinforcing in your life?

What anchors are you putting down to remind of you things that happened?

As a child you don’t have the conscious wherewithal or maturity to decide how you will interpret events, but as an adult you gain the ability to apply a higher degree of judgement and perspective towards events. As an adult you’re able to choose how you see past events.

As an adult it’s up to you.

Are you going to view events in a way that empowers or dis-empowers you?

Are you going to work on reinforcing events that limit who you are, or that free you from your past?

And the events that constrain you don’t have to be from years ago, they could be as recent as last week or even yesterday.

Your behavior and thoughts today, right now, about something that happened even just a few moments ago will reinforce how you feel about it in the future.

The emotions and situations you choose to reinforce are entirely up to you, although at times it might not feel that way. But that feeling in itself is proof, because that’s a feeling you’ve reinforced over time.

How you choose to reflect on the events of your past will with almost undeniable certainty determine how you experience your present and view your future. So get into the habit of asking yourself what you want to reinforce and let your emotions and thoughts work for you, not against you.
