“Perception”
By James Furbeck
“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change” was once said by Wayne Dyer. I believe that if you are constantly thinking about something happening, it will happen. Thinking that you can't do something will make it harder for you to do that thing. I believe your thoughts create reality. This belief is constantly taking part in people’s lives, including my own.
One day when I was 10 years old, some friends from school and I had our last soccer game of the season. This game was against the third place team in the division. We were at seven losses and zero wins so according to the statistics we were most likely going to lose. But, my friends and I thought we still had a chance in winning and with our positive attitude we tried our best, and we won 3 to 4.
On the other hand if we would have thought we were going to lose, like the statistics said, the whole story would've been different. We would’ve ended up not trying our best and then ultimately we would have lost. This event showed me that your thoughts really do change the world around you. So, stay positive to live in a positive world.
