The Stories We Tell Ourselves

Our minds are extremely skilled storytellers. Many of these stories have a history. They were created based on an experience we had, a message that was told to us, a difficult interaction, and so on. We’ve been telling ourselves these stories for so long that they often feel like fact. We get lost as the protagonist in the story and view the world from within the script. The problem with this is that we might get stuck in the storyline, which can limit us from experiencing different perspectives and new opportunities.
