Is Your Story True?

You have taken control of the pen and it now writes freely in your hand or the hand of authors you choose. Your story unfolds and shapes the way you feel, think and act. If you love reading it then carry on writing and enjoy each chapter about the great journey you are on. You will feel great, bathe in your thoughts and do some wonderful things. Read no further here. But what can you do if it doesn't quite feel right? If it doesn't feel good it is time to take a look and see if your story is true. After all it is only a story and it if it is not a good one perhaps there is a better one for you. Every story is made up of a combination of facts and assumptions. Very often there is very little fact and the interpretations and assumptions you make are the cause of your anxiety or dissatisfaction. To write a better story for you seperate out the facts and assumptions of your current story. Look at the facts and ask if those that do not help you need to be used. If not then take them out or replace them with more useful facts for you. You can do the same with assumptions and take one more step. An assumption is just one way of interpreting the world. There are so many more to choose from so pick the best one for you. Weed out unhelpful facts and assumptions and plant new and helpful ones for your growth and development. Remember today can be wonderful or woeful through the assumptions you make as you live it.
