Defining Moments Shape Our View | Kipp Sorensen @kbenedsoren #menareforged

Episode 126 - Defining moments shape our view of the world and how we see ourselves. As adults, we often find evidence that reinforces these views, causing us to emotionally react when triggered. Being aware of where these reactions come from is key as it allows us to pause and recognize that they may not be true.

Defining moments shape our view of the world. We often find evidence that reinforces what we believe about ourselves. Being aware of where these beliefs come from is key to recognizing them and pausing before reacting. #SelfAwareness #DefiningMoments

You see the world
a particular way
based upon
defining moments
of your life
There's probably
major incidences
in all of our lives
where we saw
the world
a particular way
Something occurred
and now we decided
we're gonna see it
differently
And mostly
that different way
of seeing the world
is actually
how we see ourselves
Unfortunately
then we become adults
and we find evidence
of why that's true
And then ways listening
from the perspective of
I'm not good enough
I'm always listening
from the perspective of
I am gonna get abandoned
I'm always listening
from the perspective
of these things
the minute
I have a trigger
I see anything
I go
“oh, see! it's true”
Right?
I emotionally react
and then
blah blah blah
Right?
being clear on where
that's coming from
is the key
because then I can pause
I can go
wait…That's not true
