Monday thought #7: Is it the truth or just a story?
10:53
 

I bet you've experienced something like that:  Maybe someone walks out of a presentation you're giving without an explanation, or someone simply does not show up for a meeting...or a (close) colleague just passes you in the hallway and utterly ignores you - not even saying hi. 

The brain (and the emotions) react very quickly and throw up a story. One that explains what just happened. And hardly ever it is in our favour. Sounds familiar? 

The question is though: is it really the truth? Or maybe just a story?

Listen in to my Monday thoughts where I address:

 - what and why this happens
- the dangers of our stories
- and what's the best way of dealing with it

Have a great week and see you soon.

BS - that is what blocks us (and it's not what you think!!)

So, here is

- why our BS (not what you think, I swear!) is the culprit
- a little story that shows what can happen and how reality can change (to the better!) when we shift it

Enjoy!

Hey, thanks for being here...

I promise I won't send you daily mails - I might offer you great stuff from time to time though. Of course I'm biased ;-).

Thanks for your trust!
