Wellness – Enlightened Thinking

This class presented the question, “What will they think?” We posed the idea that this might be one of the greatest evil thoughts that dominate nearly every walking moment of some people’s lives.  Focusing on this question as we go about our lives usually induces a feeling of fear that stops and blocks us from acting on or doing things we would truly like to do. The fallacy of the question was examined. Since we can never know what other people are thinking or feeling, we can choose to live our lives according to our values and desires. Realizing that other people cannot hurt us, regardless of their judgments, allows us to stop worrying about what others think and frees the mind to accomplish all that we desire without allowing fear to get in the way.
