Welcome to 2022!!! It’s going to be a great year! Whenever events occur, circumstances rear up, or “life happens”, we humans tend to react first and later realize all of the things we could/should have said/done that would have been better. There is a simple process that can help us to break this cycle thereby refraining from making situations worse and minimizing regrets. I call it the Process of Everything, and it’s 4 simple steps.

Did you know that your beliefs are decisions, choices? Even the most foundational beliefs are ones we get to choose. Whether to believe in God or believe in yourself, these are choices. Of course your experiences will influence you, but you still get to choose. This is really important to understand, because your beliefs dictate your thoughts. Those thoughts generate emotions.
