Ep 169: Podside Chat - Nothing Has Any Meaning Except The Meaning You Give It

Start Your Transformation Now As you read that headline, Nothing Has Any Meaning Except The Meaning I Give It, what does that mean to you? I know that’s a simple question but it’s a powerful realization when we come to understand that everything in our life has meaning, and we are the ones who have given meaning to it. Life’s ups and downs, we give meanings. Life’s blessings, we give meaning. Divorce and marriage we give meaning. Sex life, no sex life, adultery, loyal partners, we give it all meaning. Having a job, not having a job. Having money, not having money, we give it meaning. The biggest mistake that most of us make is that we make the meaning about our own worth and value and we devalue ourselves when we compare ourselves against what others have and do not have, we give that meaning…and usually it’s negative meaning. Look at all the things you worry about in life, what does it mean that you worry and what meaning are you giving to the things that you worry about? It’s pretty simple and also conversely complex but your life is a big bundle of meanings and it’s you who places the meanings on your life. Do you place positive or negative meanings? Do your meanings build you or destroy you? Do your meanings keep you healthy or destroy your health. Transformational Takeaway: You are the creator of your life because you create based upon the meanings you hold. Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?
