This is true indeed. I believe that often when we want to make an affirmation, for example you are like this, or this situation is like this, it would be better to replace the affirmation with a question: why ? is there something I should know? Tell me more? etc. A question shows that we want to delve more into the topic rather than judge. I have learned this throughout my life and I can see now, looking back, that putting the right questions would have helped much more in many situations rather than just sticking to affirmations.
Being honest when answering a question is vital. Honesty is vital in relationships with others and with ourselves. Sometimes when we do not like what we are or what we have, we might cling to our old beliefs and give the wrong answers. But we can never lie to ourselves forever, the truth and our true inner self will always want to come out. Thanks so much for reading this, the book is truly a gem
