Sometimes we hear something 99 times and logically we get it but, the rest of us just doesn't catch up. And then one day you hear that thing for the 100th time and boom the lights go on somebody's home and something once confusing makes sense. Maybe it was the way it was worded. Maybe it was the caffeine in your coffee. Maybe you took it in without thinking and it all fit together that time. What were your moments? What was it that you learned that made you feel empowered?
One day I was reading something about distorted thoughts when I came across this sentence that really resonated with me and made me feel empowered. It pretty much said that distorted thoughts are learned thoughts. Either someone taught it to you or you picked it up yourself while trying to cope. It went on to say that you can unlearn those thoughts. Ding. Lights on. I'm home and get out of my house. How many times had I heard comments about relearning or unbrainwashing? But, for some reason on that day it all came together. And I decided I was going to work my ass off to unlearn distorted thoughts and take my thinking back.
