Perception or Deception?

It is not the reality of our circumstance or environment we react to but the way our minds PERCEIVE it to be true. The way we do that is to compare with what we have accepted as truth and if it doesn’t fit within our blueprint we dismiss it as false or of no benefit to us.

When we become attached to our beliefs we become rigid, inflexible, severely limiting our potential for growth and new experiences. Once we become aware of how our blueprints were programmed into the subconscious mind it becomes possible to DETACH from limiting beliefs, becoming the witness, giving us the ability to challenge new thoughts and circumstances without judging them against preconceived blueprints which may or may not be our own. We begin to see opportunity where before we were confined to the limitations of preset blueprints.

Dr. Amen in his book Making A Good Brain Great gives the example of two salesmen who go to Africa. One salesman returns to report there is no market there. Nobody wears shoes. His short sited perception has clouded his imagination not allowing him to see the vast opportunity here. The second salesman returns and can hardly contain his exuberance. He reports the market is endless; no one even has a pair of shoes yet. The market is wide open!! His imagination, not being confined to the appearance of things, is going crazy with possibilities. Just because no one has shoes does not mean they don’t want them. Present the shoes and let them make the decision.

The truth is rarely seen in the appearance of things. It is important we take the time to challenge our perceptions of people and circumstance to uncover what is truly being presented. Is our preconceived blueprint accurate or is it outdated? Is our blueprint our own or is it someone else’s we accepted without question? AWARENESS is key here. Awareness affords time to lengthen between stimulus and response allowing us to see how things may be of benefit for attaining our goals.
