Myth 3: Our Thoughts Indicate the Inner Self This is the belief that thoughts are paths to our inner self, sort of like eyes being windows to the soul. This includes the belief that whatever is in our mind is a reflection of our true thoughts and feelings, no matter how we might protest it is not so. So intrusive thoughts must speak some special, perhaps hidden, truth about us. Fact: The fact is that everyone has passing weird, aggressive, or crazy thoughts. If every thought spoke to underlying character, then 90 percent of people would be weird, aggressive, or crazy.
