Human beings don't see we interpret.

We don't take in what happens.

We take in the implication of what happens.

Everything in our world is story.

It's similar to the idea of two ideologically different news organizations, right, reporting

on the same event, neither will be completely factual.

They'll both uphold their individual narratives.

They're not black and white.

They're interpreting gray space.

And our individual lives are no different.

We are our own broadcasting channels.

Using data to support our individual narratives.

See, we know what the story is going to say before the story occurs because we will make it so.

We'll make life fit our beliefs.

That's what means to be human.

So here's where the value lives

in the context of this message

when we find ourselves in a consistent state

of despair or frustration or anxiety.

It's a fool's errand to look for solutions in the external world.

Because everything we find, everything we come across, will support our current beliefs,

our current story.
