About Perspectives by Choice

Perceptions are one thing. Perspectives quite another. We can’t always explain why we perceive things a certain way, or why our perceptions affect us like they do. What do we do with perceptions that don’t give us the most useful insight, and that can even harm us? We change our perspective, that’s what we do. Skew your perspective a bit. Look at your perceptions askance if you don’t like what they’re telling you. There’s a good chance you can’t rely on them for the most accurate representation of who you are anyway since we’re notoriously prone to manipulation, and our ability to change our perspective can change our life. It’s your choice.
