A religious person will have a
different thought from one who is not. And a Democrat usually doesn’t view
issues the same way as a Republican.
Take the shoes for example. It
has the same principle. Some like custom shoes for personalization. But some
don’t. Someone will buy a shoes printer only for one desired image. That all
depends on different conceptions. So when you have a negative thought about
yourself, don’t consider it a fact until you also reflect on the opposite view.
And if the alternative is more positive, accept that to be your truth.
An anorexic (厌食症患者) looks in the mirror
and thinks she’s fat. As a result she starves herself and rids her body of
vital nutrition. But society thinks she’s too skinny. Unless she can change her
perception, she’ll never agree with society. And she’ll never get better. What
are you seeing in you that is preventing you from realizing how beautiful you
are? Or how smart you are? Or how lovable? If you take the positive view, that
is how other people will see you too.
More often than not the critical
statements that damage your self-esteem come from your own mind. Now you know
how you can silence them. A bad comment is usually not about you; it’s about
something that is going on with the commenter. Don’t believe anything that is
said to you that isn’t in your best interest. And don’t waste any time or
brainpower on anyone who doesn’t think you are amazing.
It’s what you think that creates
how you feel. Design your own custom shoes, despite other one’s critical eyes.
If you like it, it will be the top one. If someone tells you you’re fat, or
stupid or otherwise unappealing, the only person you should think badly about
is them!
