I recently attended goal setting training, and learned a simply yet staggeringly important truth.

Everything after “I am” creates.*

We create our lives.   Every single aspect comes from us.  What we think, we become.

 Have you ever heard the saying, “We become what we judge?”

When we judge someone, our behaviors begin to mirror what we judge.  For example, if you judge someone for a prejudice, you become prejudiced against them.  You may have started from a place of moral righteousness (caution!  warning!) but you eventually become the very thing you resent.
