Perception at its basic definition is how you understand, define, or believe something to be. ⁣

Look at the second like to get a more precise definition; I truly don’t think many will understand the first, as the second definition is the more relatable one to most. (Not a shot, relax) 🤣 ⁣

⁣

It’s easy to see how someone perceives something by the way they act, respond, speak, don’t speak, or show body language in certain situations, conversations, or instances.. ⁣

⁣

Most times perception is shaped minutes, hours, days, or years prior to the situation, conversation, or instance. ⁣

⁣

Rather than doing this, we can/should/must be in the present moment so that our past notions or perceptions aren’t killing the greatness that could be happening/not happening in the present moment; ⁣

Especially if you have a negative perception going in, the universe/yourself will grant you this desire. ⁣

This is one reason why it is so damn important to keep a positive mindset as often as possible; this mindset won’t allow negative to come into its arena; however it is easier to allow such thoughts to fester when your mindset is not in a positive state. ⁣

“An idle mind is the devils playground”⁣

We’ve all heard this saying, it’s just saying but holds so much truth. ⁣

A mind that is not tended to will fall into the wasteland. ⁣

Be mindful. Be diligent. Be determined. ⁣

Focus on the right things so that you don’t respond the wrong way. ⁣
