You know how the saying goes "You are the product of the things you hear", I take this to be true and as individuals, if we open up our ears to unfiltered information particularly from unchecked sources we will find that our lives will unconsciously fall into the pattern of what we consume as social advice.
We know that the primary sense of hearing is the ear but if you think about it, you hear with your eyes as well if not clearly than your ear. You want to ask how?
Notice how for instance you pick up a book to read in a quiet place where there is no sound, you will soon realize that what you read with your eyes resounds within your ears as though the book speaks to you as you read it. It is how you get engrossed or say "this book really spoke out to me", it's how the Holy Spirit speaks to our ears when we read the scripture with our eyes. Our eyes are linked to our ears so we won't be amiss when we say "You are what you look at".

The point is this; you want to be careful of the things you hear either with your ear or eyes from both animate or inanimate sources. With the increase in motivational talks, Entrepreneurial speeches, Life Coach/Mentorship programmes and Relationship expertise chances are that while these information sources may be reliable it really doesn't mean it should or will be applicable to you.
You are your first point of call if you desire any positive and uplifting change in your life. Now I am not against informing yourself with basic helpful information if you do not know what to do concerning certain areas of your life. But what I need you to understand is to take credit for your ability to naturally invent your solution that will best suit you, do not undermine your creative abilities. Anytime you need advise or help first be sure that you mentally with your own brain explore all creative means to help yourself.
Sometimes external advise may seem like it works for others and not for you this is true because when 10 people have the same problem it only means there are 10 different solutions available to solve it. So, if one way doesn't work find another but always start from within.
You are way smarter and more creative than you think and you really do not have to wait until you are between a rock and hard place before your ingenuity kicks in. In truth only you know when you need to change a negative character, a bad attitude, a toxic relationship or a nasty mindset.
Own your problem and you will see how easy you can come up with your own solution if you stay true to yourself.
