AND WHAT
CAN WE DO TO CHANGE OUR POSITION?
A lot of the time we are not even aware
that we have positioned ourselves in a certain way - that our beliefs about who
we are and how we should react to the
world and people around us are not etched in stone, and that we can shift and
change that position.
Although our points of reference have
been conditioned by the beliefs of our parents and other influential people in
our lives - this is pretty natural - what we often lose sight of is that we can
choose to 're-locate' ourselves.
Think about some of the beliefs you have
about who you are. How many of these
beliefs do you think are actually your intrinsic
nature, and how many do you think have to do with the 'positions' you have
bought into?

HERE'S A FUN EXPERIMENT TO TRY ~
Imagine that you are a professional
portrait photographer.
Take a photograph of yourself.
This is a magic photo which shows not
only an image, but also your beliefs about yourself, your beliefs about your
significance in the world and beliefs about your connections to others…
What do you think about who you are, how you look, what others think of
you, what you are 'supposed' to do in your life. Do you see yourself as beautiful? Smart?
Funny? Loved? Worthy of love? What words would you use to label this
portrait of yourself?
Now as the photographer, change
things!
Stand at a different location, use
different lenses and filters.
Create a different image of the same
human…
Now re-label the image. What words describe this new creation?
See how many shifts you can create and
how many different ways you can see yourself…
