This video really hit me hard, especially the quote I put as the title of this thread.

The same things used to keep happening to me: meeting someone who I thought was too good to be true, who I lionized and obsessed over, who I told myself I wasn't good enough for. Then I'd overcompensate for this insecurity and try too hard to force something between us. After this I'd get led on, or thrust into some state of ambiguity where I'd be stuck wondering if I still had a chance or I could make things happen between us. Finally things would inevitably end in some messy way that would lead me depressed and hurt.

After that I'd pine and mourn and brood.

And then the process would happen again. And I couldn't understand why this kept happening to me. I thought maybe it was my actions, and they certainly were a big part of this paradigm, but at the core it was my thoughts (since they generate my actions) that caused this.

And this was because my thoughts were squarely focused on the past, and why these incidents happened and how much it sucked that they happened. Well by doing this I created the same situations again and again!

You can't say this is a coincidence. It's the Law of Attraction.

This revelation hit me hard, but I'm not hurt. I've been making miraculous strides and I know that my story has changed. This will NEVER happen again.
