"I see everything through my inner child’s eyes,

Those beliefs become my beliefs …

until I am wise."

Louise L. Kallaway.

Never underestimate the power of denial.

Your self-protective ego and subconscious mind will do their best to keep you in denial – especially if they think you won’t be able to handle the truth … and your intellectual brain may react with disbelief too, by:

Keeping you ‘stuck’ in your childhood baggage, its self-fulfilling prophesies and unconsciously repeating generational cycles; and

Translating into the frustration and ‘stuckness’ you feel in your maturing life.

***

21st Century intelligence asks:

On what do you base your life, if not your childhood?

Where do your feelings about yourself and your potential, your beliefs, comfort zones, behaviours and generational expectations come from, if not your childhood?

Where else did you learn to conform?

Separated from your childhood, you don’t make sense.

Aristotle was an ancient Greek philosopher 384 B.C. to 322 B.C.
