I'm seeing the term "NEURODIVERSITY" everywhere this week. As someone with (a lifetime of) ADD...and a son with ADHD it resonates...as long as it creates curiosity/desire to understand and be understood...

A few new clients have been processing in a unique way the last few weeks. It has inspired me to share....

Long story short, the "string" that often holds so many of our past/present issues and trauma in "active" memory (emotionally if not cognitively) is called PERSONAL BELIEFS. What we believe about self, others, success, failure, profession, relationships, etc... has been developing from birth. Many of these solidifying in our pr***en years. The list of reasons why we do not recognize or face many of them is long and often full of fear and/or discomfort. These beliefs are challenged and/or reinforced by life/others...but mostly by OUR OWN PERCEPTIONS.

Simply put...if life is ..."stuck"...if the same issues keep coming up...if feelings of dysfunction or disconnectedness keep invading...if you lose connection with your potential...with HOPE....likely... there is an issue with personal beliefs.

One way to get through this....challenge your perceptions often...every day...especially about yourself...if you recognize a perception that does not inspire a better tomorrow...why? If a perception does not leave room to learn and make better decisions...why?

Everyone can have a better tomorrow...even if minuscule....even if "only on the inside". It will make a difference! it will compound! Often, without knowing exactly why...negative "things" will lessen....more and more...then positive things will "appear"...because you can now perceive them....

This applies to everyone in different ways....pursue it honestly...make better decisions...have a better tomorrow.

Feel free to contact me if you ever need some one to help in this process.

This is well done.

Wil Wheaton is the latest in a line of people to tell his story of what it's like living with mental illness for Project UROK.
