Quote by Stephen Richards

Once you stop being locked into viewing reality from just one perspective, you will start to be free from habitual reactivity.

Once you stop being locked into viewing reality from just on

Summary

This quote suggests that when we break free from our limited viewpoint and open ourselves to multiple perspectives, we become liberated from our automatic, reactive responses to the world. By recognizing that there are various ways to perceive and interpret reality, we escape the constraints of rigid thinking, biases, and preconceptions. This newfound freedom allows us to approach situations with greater openness, curiosity, and flexibility, leading to more thoughtful and measured responses rather than being driven by habit or impulse.

I, on the other hand, am a finished product. I absorb electrical energy directly and utilize it with an almost one hundred percent efficiency. I am composed of strong metal, am continuously conscious, and can stand extremes of environment easily. These are facts which, with the self-evident proposition that no being can create another being superior to itself, smashes your silly hypothesis to nothing.
