Rewriting The Story: Flip The Script On Your Programming
If I could experience the most extraordinary pain,
could I also experience the most incredible reward?
Our minds are the most remarkable coding machines ever created. They absorb, process and respond to the data they’re given. Our minds are so powerful, that they can completely program and create our reality, so with the right programming, we can flip the script on our narratives any time we choose.
Consider this: if every act of violence inflicts wounds, could it also hold true that every act of love mends us and makes us whole? If we’ve told ourselves that healing is not possible, could we flip the narrative and tell ourselves it absolutely is?
If we are replaying trauma in our minds, we’re constantly feeding it, justifying it, giving it our time and power. But what if we programmed ourselves to focus on something more productive? On healing, freedom and creating an incredible life?
I faced every act of violence and suffering you could imagine. I touched on the extreme edge of everything a human can endure. So if I could go right to the darkest edge, could I not go to the lightest and brightest edge too?
I mean, why not? Why could I not experience the extreme of both sides?
The defiant, stubborn and curious side of me made a choice. I was going to flip the narrative completely and just GIVE IT ALL I’ve GOT. It wasn’t my past that was going to be my challenge. It was my ability to forge the most incredible life DESPITE my past. To outgrow, outwit, outsmart my programming and recode my brain with an extraordinary new reality.
It was a challenge I accepted! I knew deep down I was not going to let my trauma win.
There were many times I wanted to give up, but in the same way that my abuse became more extreme as time went on, my healing also became more potent and life-enhancing as time went on. I was blown away by how things began to line up in my life and how simple it was for me to tap into what felt truthful to me. Every day I created, and still create, the reality of my dreams.
So always remember that you can not only heal and be whole again, you can also make the decision to dominate life and choose any existence you desire. You can recode your brain, take full control of your world, and never have to be defined by your past again.
Every single one of us has the option, and the power, to recode our brains. We can write the wrongs and create an entirely new reality for ourselves. We have the opportunity to reframe our reality any way we want to, and we get a chance every single day, to start our lives anew.
