Life in Small Bites - 3.02 Self-Knowledge

"The essential meaning and purpose of life is to become the best-version-of-yourself."
- Mathew Kelly

"You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.
- James Allen

Our brain is sometimes compared to a computer in that you can only take out what you put in. Our brains are infinitely more complex than a computer and are capable of creative thought. Yet the comparison has some merit in that it is a strong caution to be wary of the "garbage-in, garbage-out" phenomenon.

It is up to us to put in information and concepts that will promote our well-being and success. If we do not do our own programming, someone else will do it for us.

With this in mind I work to supply my Inner Voice with supportive material for positive programming. I know that my Inner Voice, the 'good one' that knows and wants the best for me is like a muscle – it gets stronger with exercise. I must "Use it or lose it."
