Buddha’s dharma continues:

“Do not believe a thing because the probabilities are in its favor, or because you are in the habit of believing it to be true.”

I had a lot of preconceived notions that had been planted by my family and experiences…some were real and some assumed.  However, during my transformation journey, I have come to examine them to see if they still hold true.  In almost all cases, they aren’t true but I was in the habit of believing them all these years.  What a relief when I realized that these notions weren’t true because many of them had to do with weight, appearance and me not being good enough.  I highly recommend examining preconceived notions, it could change one’s whole outlook on life!
