Story Busters

Tools and Resources for Inner Conflict Resolution & Prevention

Meaning:

What you believe to be true, based on your Filters of Belief
will determine what you think is possible!

     An event or experience is completely neutral, neither right or wrong, good or bad.
We see our world, situations, events and people through our Filers of Belief and they see us through theirs. We attach meaning to a situation based on our filters and judgments. To change the outcome of peace or conflict and our interpretation / perception of an event or situation and what is possible for us, we must question and change / reframe our mind and thoughts about the story and what it means to us.

     This sincere questioning will ultimately lead to our self concept, self awareness and self understanding of who we think we are. The more you understand your own beliefs, perceptions, assumptions, behaviors and other elements of self-awareness, the better you can question whether your current perception of an event is serving you or anyone else. We all have issues and experiences but they are not “who we are”.

     Realize that needing to be right and taking things personally is simply attaching a limited meaning to an event and you CAN change what it means to you, if you are willing.
