Unlearn

We have tried hate, judgement, jealousy, unkindness, control, manipulation, war, killing, and fear.

It’s what we are taught, we’re not born that way.

We need to stop using what has been done before as a guide to what to do going forward. It’s a failed method as it has not worked.

What have we got to lose as a human race by trying a new approach?

After all, it has not all been done before. We’ve never tried love, kindness, compassion, empathy, support and openness.

Unlearn, the world will be better.

Find a reason

Often in life, we have developed this habit of finding reason’s not to do something.

This fear-driven mentality is part of the hard-wired protective mechanism that our limbic ‘chimp’ brain uses to stop us being exposed to risk.

What if we simply turned that on its head and searched for reasons to do something? Similar to catching people doing something right, instead of always trying to catch others doing something wrong.

Imagine the possibilities if we found a reason why we could do something.

Find a reason to do the things that matter in life and stop searching for reasons to hide.

After all, it is just a habit and what you choose to look for.
