RE: ARE YOUR THOUGHTS KILLING YOU?
good life to you. I believe the answer you are after is 'the law of attraction'.
there is much to it, but the jist is you attention is productive, you attention + emotion = faster results. the results come based upon the energy you put into whatever you keep you focus upon.
thankfully positive thoughts are more powerful than negative.
follow you attention. i've heard before you teach what you want to learn, dive into whatever grabs your attention. but, i'd say you need a guiding light, a goal, somewhere you are trying to go. i asked for wisdom, that is how my journey began. it all started with a journal, and page by page i filled it with the wisdom of the world around me.
it happened gradually, but suddenly i noticed that the wisdom had stopped just being words on the page, but became real wisdom that i had begun to understand the roots.
best of luck on your journey, life is a wonderful ride, however you use it.
