Some people think life is like a train track that only goes one way. But it’s actually like a big box of Lego!. You don’t have to build what the box shows you. You can take the pieces apart and build a castle, a spaceship, or a race car whenever you want!. You get to choose the shape of your day.

Why it Happens: Your life is a reflection of belief systems programmed at a subconscious level. If these aren’t questioned, they feel like “destiny”.

How to Fix It: Visualise a different future. It is as simple as that.

Context: The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung emphasized that we should not copy others but find our own “uniqueness”. At Good Words, the philosophy is that every “durable self” is a unique construction, not an imposed destiny.
