self-recalibration

16. The truth of anything is multidimensional and impossible to fully grasp. So a better question than “Is this true?” is “In what scenario is this true?”

your mind has a tendency to dwell on the aspects of you that need improvement, fuelled by established patterns of subconscious self-scrutiny in the name of self-improvement to counteract this, make a deliberate effort to recognise the goodness, sweetness & delightfulness in you

my tendency’s been to fixate on what’s difficult, painful, or scary in my experience, with a sincere desire to improve or change them. lately, i’m convinced there’s a better option: to shift my attention to what's good, beautiful, and pleasurable & allow those to saturate my life
