Perception: The Power to Reframe Things
How you perceive the world needs to be seeded from the inside.
No one can see the world as you do, and within that canvas we all share, you are the producer of your own reality, a world only you can carry. Add another pair of eyes, and you find yourself with two frames, with two realms of interpretations, with two worlds ready to collide. That’s perspective.
And there’s a gap between perception and reality.
The state of things you believe to be true is, in fact, nothing more but a small portion of the bigger truth. A truth no human ever had access to, nor could hope to hold in the palms of his hands.
And yet, too often, we are preoccupied with what other people are thinking. Too often, we are preoccupied with how others see us. Too often, we forget that things are not what they are, but in fact, what we think they are.
Within that gap between perception and reality lies the power to reframe things.
Wayne Dyer said:
“Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change.”
In other words, how you perceive the world needs to be seeded from the inside. — Kim Petersen
