SHOW NOTES: On this show, we are letting go of our old ways of thinking to learn why silence, perspective, and always needing the last word may be holding us back. Have you ever caught yourself clinging to a belief simply because it feels like yours to protect, even when it no longer fits the moment or serves the relationship? Or felt compelled to say one more thing, just to make sure you're understood, validated, or seen as right, only to walk away feeling a little more frustrated than fulfilled? We're taking a closer look at the roots of our thinking: where they came from, how they became so automatic, and why they can be so hard to release. We'll explore the underestimated power of silence, the gift of stepping back, and the clarity that can come from listening to the B-side of your beliefs. That's the perspective we often ignore, but it just might set us free. This episode is your chance to pause, reflect, and make room for something new. Before we can begin letting go of our old ways of thinking, we have to understand what those “old ways” really are and why they're so sticky. This segment sets the foundation by exploring four core ideas that will guide the rest of our conversation: inherited thinking, the compulsion to be right, the power of silence, and the value of perspective. 1. Old Ways of Thinking: Where Did They Come From? We don't just wake up one day with a fixed mindset. Most of our beliefs, assumptions, and mental habits were inherited. We picked them up from family, culture, community, trauma, school, media, or lived experience. Some were explicitly taught, like “Don't speak unless spoken to.” Others were absorbed through repetition or modeled behavior. Over time, these ideas become so ingrained that we stop questioning them. They feel safe and familiar, but that doesn't mean they're serving us. 2. The Need to Be Right and Have the Last Word Let's face it. Most of us have been in a conversation where we had to make our point, clarify our stance, or get the last word in. That compulsion often comes from fear: fear of being misunderstood, fear of looking weak, or fear of losing control. In some cases, it's ego. In others, it's a form of protection, often shaped by past moments when staying quiet came at a cost. But constantly defending our viewpoint keeps us stuck. It makes learning and connection harder and turns dialogue into debate. 3. The Power of Silence Silence gets a bad reputation. We rush to fill quiet moments in conversation, viewing them as awkward or uncomfortable, or assuming they mean something is wrong. But silence can be a powerful tool. It gives us time to process, to listen fully, to think instead of react. Silence invites reflection. It creates space for others. And sometimes, saying nothing speaks volumes. In a world of noise, silence can be the most honest response. 4. Perspective: The B-Side of the Story Imagine your beliefs as a 45-record. The A-side is your familiar story. It's what you've always believed to be true. It's catchy, comfortable, and easy to play. But flip it over, and there's a B-side—a quieter, less popular track that offers a different rhythm. Perspective means seeing beyond the obvious and stepping outside your default view. It's not about abandoning your truth but creating space for more than one version of reality. When we only ever play the A-side, we miss the deeper track that might change everything. How to Let Go of Being Right Black & White Thinking in Relationships: Examples, Impacts, & Solutions Make An Impact - Inspirational Video CHALLENGE: Notice when old thinking shows up and instead of reacting, pause long enough to ask yourself, “Is there another side to this?” Be willing to release the need to be right and choose growth, peace, and presence instead.

Hello to you listening in Hamburg, Germany!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.  We are living in a time of historic upheaval. But what if this currently confusing, chaotic, confounding, cultural churn is stumbling toward change that reveals the hidden roots of social injustice for what they are so that we can reconfigure for good?How easily the safeguards can be leaped. And they have been. We can clutch our pearls and bemoan the times we live in; or, we can invite our feelings of hopelessness to give way to action, to repair, restore, and renew out of the ashes of the old ways. We are responsible for making change because we're the only “sentient force” that can.Question: What one small grand gesture are you committed to take on behalf of what you love and care for?These words from the Irish poet Seamus Heaney may motivate and sustain you wherever your feet touch the ground, whatever progress you are intent on making today.    “History says, Don't hopeOn this side of the grave...But then, once in a lifetimeThe longed-for tidal waveOf justice can rise upAnd hope and history rhyme.” [“The Cure at Troy” Seamus Heaney]BONUS: Seamus Heaney reads his poem, The Cure at TroyThe Cure at Troy (full text)"Human beings sufferThey torture one another,They get hurt and get hard.No poem or play or songCan fully right a wrongInflicted and endured. The innocent in gaolsBeat on their bars together.A hunger-striker's fatherStands in the graveyard dumb.The police widow in veilsFaints at the funeral home. History says, Don't hopeOn this side of the grave…But then, once in a lifetimeThe longed-for tidal waveOf justice can rise up,And hope and history rhyme. So hope for a great sea-changeOn the far side of revenge.Believe that a further shoreIs reachable from here.Believe in miraclesAnd cures and healing wells. Call miracle self-healing:The utter, self-revealingDouble-take of feeling.If there's fire on the mountainOr lightning and stormAnd a god speaks from the sky That means someone is hearingThe outcry and the birth-cryOf new life at its term.It means once in a lifetimeThat justice can rise upAnd hope and history rhyme.
