Community: Belief that changed

Each week, we gather our community’s wisdom. This week, we asked:

What's something you used to believe but have since changed your mind about?

"I used to believe that the only way to achieve my goals was to do it alone. But I have since found that collaboration with other like minded people, not only shortens the learning curve but also, create things greater than what I ever imagined in the beginning."

"That everything was black or white; right or wrong. But life doesn’t work in absolutes and what might be one thing today could change tomorrow."

“That cynicism and edginess were just personality traits; there’s always processed pain underneath.”

“I thought that others were constantly judging; now I know they might be admiring.”

“That mistakes weaken me.”

“That work is more important and fulfilling than your connections to others. It’s not.”

“That ending a certain relationship would kill me. Now I’m a different person and I’m thankful that t happened.”

“That you have to have everything all sorted out.”

“That I have to please people or else I will lose them.”

“I thought I didn’t need help and had to do it all on my own. Now I ask for help and support.”

“That I wasn’t worthy of caring for myself.”

“That being single meant being lonely. It’s actually lovely.”

“That I don’t matter.”
