The stories we tell ourselves have a direct impact on what we believe about life. I don’t know about you, but I can easily get carried away by crazy thoughts running through my head—like one time when I was enjoying some much-needed alone time on a weekend getaway.
I drove to a secluded lake house in Alabama. As I settled into my evening, I put on a movie and began working on a project. The lights were on, the movie soundtrack was blaring, and I was loving my life. Then out of nowhere, the power went out. As I sat in complete darkness and silence, my brain kicked into high gear. In a split second, I knew what happened. The killer was outside! He had cut the power—just like they do in scary movies—and he was coming to get me.
