QUESTION WHAT YOUโ€™RE BELIEVING.

Enlightenment Is Within You

Weโ€™re a slave to our thoughts.

And most of the time, theyโ€™re not true.

โ€œThis person doesnโ€™t care about me. This person did this to me. Iโ€™m not worthy of love.โ€

Our thoughts create suffering.

So how can we stop believing them?

On todayโ€™s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about the ego and how to investigate our thoughts with the creator of The Work: Byron Katie.
