You are the authority on you

In this talk, Bruce Di Marsico discusses perfect self-trust.

All unhappy beliefs are derived from only one belief: Something can make you unhappy. You could only question yourself as to whether any symptom or sign in your body or your life could be unhappiness if you believed, in the first place, that something could cause unhappiness.

Believers in unhappiness define happiness as somehow unhappy (boring, unsafe, bad for their wants). Happiness is the absence of whatever doesn’t belong there. If you do not want to be bored, then your happiness would certainly not be boring. If you do not want to be unsafe, then your happiness would certainly not be unsafe.

If happiness is seen as a way to ignore or avoid unhappiness, that is unhappy, because it is presuming there is unhappiness to avoid in the first place.

If you cannot trust your decisions, how can you trust your decision not to trust your decisions? You are the authority on you. There can be no greater authority.
