One Perspective Limit

No perspective is wrong, but if you only have one it limits life, and in the process it doesn’t allow any other results except those from that one perspective…

Changing perspectives is what makes life different, but it doesn’t make what happens different, it only makes the perspective of what happens different. If you’re locked into a certain perspective, this only allows one way of seeing things. The more your perspective is based on the intellect, the harder it will be for there to be a shift to see things another way. Not that there’s anything inherently wrong with the intellect, it just doesn’t allow for much openness. When one sees things from a perspective of only one way, it limits life to that one way. Most times this perspective isn’t even your own, it’s formed from someone else’s perspective, opinion, teaching, book, video, or discussion.

To be fixated on one perspective keeps you entrapped to the results of only that perspective; think about how limiting that is. No possibility of another way, always going down the same path, never allowing anything new. This is so limiting, but with only seeing things through one perspective, how limiting this is will not be seen. Sitting and developing discipline so the minds grip lessens can assist in possibly altering a one perspective mind set, but for this to occur there has to an inkling there’s another way to see things. It’s not that your way is wrong, it’s just that having only one perspective limits life, and in the process it doesn’t allow any other results except those from that one perspective…
