Study Notes

Perspectives and Reality

  • Two dogs can experience the same event (rain) and perceive it differently, showing that perspectives determine thoughts, feelings, and actions.
  • Our perspectives shape our reality, and it's essential to develop a positive perspective.

The Power of Perception

  • We don't live our lives based on reality, but on our perspective and perception of reality.
  • A positive perspective can change one's reality, as seen in Bubba's experience of practicing gratitude.

Positive and Negative Stories

  • We tell ourselves big stories (main themes) that define our lives, which can be positive (adventure, love story) or negative (drama, horror).
  • We can change our story from negative to positive at any time.
  • Little stories (beliefs and philosophies) also influence our lives, and we can choose to feed ourselves positive or negative stories.

Changing Perspectives

  • We can change our negative stories to positive ones by changing or choosing different words.
  • Practicing gratitude and positive self-talk can feed the positive dog and increase positivity.
