The Knowledge Project with Shane Parrish

NOTE

**How to be the bigger person and end cycles of hatred **

We are all prisoners in our own mind in some way or another./nWhen we're telling our story to our kids, there is one aspect of it that is stopping us from saying it./nThis doesn't mean that the woman is stopping thinking the thoughts, but by not passing them on, we are not feeding them as much./nThe thoughts can be reinforced by the actions we take, and the actions can also fuel the thoughts./nWe can shift our perspective to a broader perspective, which can help us see that the moment in question doesn't matter in the context of our broader perspective./nAlternatively, we can simply focus on how we want to live in this moment, without feeding the thoughts and emotions.
