Here's a sure way to know what you actually think





We all have opinions, but how many are truly our own? How many opinions are based on a simple knee-jerk reaction, or a learned belief, or a desire to be accepted? There's no shame in holding opinions of course, but it is imperative that we know where these opinions come from and not just blindly accept them as our own. We owe it to ourselves to think critically about what we believe and why we believe it.


To know what you actually think, you need to be willing to question your beliefs. Ask yourself why you believe what you do. Is it because someone told you to believe it? Is it because it's what you've always believed? Is it because it's what everyone else believes?

  • If you can't answer these questions, then you don't really know what you believe. You're just repeating what you've been told or what you've always believed.
  • If you want to know what you actually think, you need to be willing to challenge your beliefs. Ask yourself if there's any evidence to support your beliefs. Are there any other perspectives that you haven't considered?


If you can't find any evidence to support your beliefs, then you may need to reconsider them. You may also need to consider other perspectives. There's no shame in changing your mind if you find new information. In fact, it's a sign of intelligence.


It's not always easy to know what you actually think. It takes time and effort to question your beliefs and challenge your assumptions. But it's worth it. If you want to live a life that's true to yourself, you need to know what you actually think.


I recently had a conversation with a friend who was struggling with this very issue. She had always believed that she wanted to be a doctor, but she wasn't sure if it was really what she wanted. She had never really questioned her belief before, but she was starting to have doubts.


I encouraged her to take some time to think about what she really wanted to do with her life. I told her to ask herself why she wanted to be a doctor. Was it because she wanted to help people? Was it because she was good at science? Was it because it was what her parents wanted her to do?


After much thought, she realized that she didn't actually want to be a doctor. She wanted to be a writer. She had always loved writing, but she had never thought of it as a career before.


She was so relieved to finally know what she wanted to do with her life. She had been struggling with this decision for years, but she had never taken the time to really think about it.


If you're struggling with the same issue, I encourage you to take some time to think about what you actually think. Ask yourself the hard questions. Challenge your beliefs. And don't be afraid to change your mind if you find new information.


It's not always easy to know what you actually think, but it's worth it. If you want to live a life that's true to yourself, you need to know what you actually think.
