You become inflexible and intolerant if you believe that your hard and fast rules (belief systems) with their fixed positions are the only valid and true points of view. It is impossible to remain relaxed and fluid in your relationships, work or religious convictions when you work from an inflexible and stubborn data base. Your life will develop into a series of disputes and conflicts. You see the world through your “world” frame of mind. Anything that fails to fit into your “frame” must be wrong, defective and immoral. Our belief systems dictate the quality of life that we build for ourselves. Inflexibility and stubborn insistence can lead to fanatical behaviour when it comes to religion and politics.

To keep your balance you must keep moving.

We decide what we deem suitable conduct. We act and react according to these norms. We make up the rules and regulations for our individual worlds according to our belief systems. Each one of us becomes the ruler of our own individual world and life. We could as ruler of our world change the rules and the scripts that we prepared for others and ourselves, but often stubbornly insist that everyone must at all times stick to the original scripts we prepared for them. Keep in mind that everyone that acts in our plays has their own individual world as well. These actors are also the rulers of their own world and the author of their own scripts. Many misunderstanding and disputes are caused by individuals that fail to adhere to the specific role we wrote for them in our script.
