Ways of Living Xi

the self-fulfilling prophet who estimates situations & then switches their own perspective so as to suit the outcome--- operating within the same lens of which they already had established prior to entering into anything, really, that first step out of the bed in the morning can be reduced to a logical statement assessing the whole of one’s life, every single step of the way---never passing up the chance to beat oneself up & then to substantiate the action by proving oneself to be right about it, after changing one’s perspective to suit the beating in the first place.
