I'm not talking about lying to oneself. I'm talking about affirmations.
Fake example:
Inner Dialougue: "You're shit, you'll never live up to your potential you might as well just stop right now. blah blah your a horrible person. blah blah:
Me to self: "You're a great person."
Inner Dialogue: blha blah blah blah your so bad
Me to self: "That's cool, you can think that"
I wish the best to ya though
Affirmations is just another one of those words that are so broadly understood by people that it's dangerous saying that they are BS to people. I've written an response about this before that was chastised but it's all good. I'm not holding any grudges hehe. I view affirmations differently then tona, and dmca views them different from both of us, even if just slightly. We must agree on a proper definition of a word before we ever start giving an opinion on something because when we don't know where the other person is coming from then might not understand. We are probably all right from our own perspectives and experiences. But from a person who has not made an opinion on the matter they might get an unhealthy opinion on the matter when they really have no experience. That's no bueno.
BTW, i love your responses granny. they are always spot on and clearing up what's going on in my head. and funny.
