I’ve learned I can’t think my way into

a better way of acting.

That’s the loop of overinflating my thoughts.

Details that keep me stuck.

My experience has shown

I can act my way into

a better way of thinking.

Where my actions lead,

my feelings follow.

It’s not a matter of choice.

It’s a matter of awareness.

My actions are the best filter of

what I really believe to be true.

Not what my thoughts say I believe.

Not what my feelings want to believe.

What I really believe.

Acting changes thinking.

Thinking shapes feeling.

Feeling reinforces acting.

The order matters.

If I wait to feel different before I act,

I don’t move.

When I act,

everything else catches up.

The paradox is this:

My best thinking doesn’t come before acting.

My best acting comes in spite of it.
