I've been reminding myself lately how absurd it is to let anything in my life have power over me and stress me out/give me anxiety.
If I TRULY believe that I am the Creator of my reality, then I *am* my reality. Nothing seemingly external is "coming for me." It can't. It doesn't have power over me. It's coming *from* me, not at me.
It's all flowing from me, so I'm only going to create good things for myself.
This has been my belief for years now, but I still have to consciously remind myself oftentimes.
It's an especially important reminder when I catch myself becoming frustrated with a difficult or unpleasant experience/circumstance, because at that time, I'll be viewing that experience as something "external."
It's not external, even though it's unpleasant. It's something I created in my life.
Once I remember that Fact and accept it, then I can create a new reality for myself. First by changing how I'm feeling in that moment toward that experience, by switching from a negative mindset to a positive one.
Then by letting that new positive mindset reprogram my reality.
As within, so without.
