How Do You Create Your Truth?


How Do You Create Your Truth?

Truth. 

The quality or state of being true.

What is truth?

For some, this answer is complex and difficult.

For others, this answer is very, very simple.

How do you create your truth?

Most have an experience.

They decide if it was good or bad.

And they learn from it.

They make it truth.

And they hold onto it, sometimes forever.

Others learn from patterns.

They require multiple experiences of something to decide if it is truth.

They push, defy, and often "learn the hard way" – requiring themselves to first see a pattern.

When the pattern becomes clear, enough times, they change and decide what is true.

Others really learn "the hard way."

Others wait until they are smacked, hard, upside the face with truth.

Maybe their body forces a surrender to an unsustainable way of living.

Maybe their bad habits begin to affect their physical ability. 

Maybe they end up in jail. 

Others learn from experts and thought leaders and mentors and the experienced.

These people don't necessarily need to experience something firsthand. 

They learn from others who have "been there" or who have a reputation for seeing what is true. 

Maybe the learned truth only needs to be learned once. 

How do you learn?

How do you evolve your truth?

If you evolve it, that is.
