The Stories We Breathe

Message/Experiment of the Week:

What stories do you tell yourself? Our lives are built around the conscious and subconscious stories we tell ourselves, and just like the air we breathe we are surrounded by them and rarely realize how important they are.

Yesterday was Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and we honor him because he courageously helped us change the stories we tell ourselves about race in America.

For an experiment this week, pay attention to the stories you tell yourself about yourself and the people and things in your life. Then challenge those stories and make sure they are true and that they make your life and the world a better place.

Quotes of the Week:

• "We are the stories we are told and we are the stories we tell ourselves. To change our circumstances, we need to change our story: edit it, modify it, or completely rewrite it". — Attributed to Harold R. Johnson

• "The stories we tell ourselves are the stories that define the potentialities of our existence". — Attributed to Laura Lee

• "Who are we but the stories we tell ourselves, about ourselves, and believe?". — Attributed to Scott Turow
