THINK

Turning “we” into “i” turns wellness into illness.

Scientists and researchers at Columbia University found that people who disproportionately use the first person pronouns- I, me, mine- have significantly greater risk of having a heart attack. Excessive self-focus distorts our perspective so that even small problems appear out of proportion and unbearable, which leads to stress and disease.

When you focus too much on yourself , you become disconnected and alienated from others. In the end, you also become alienated from yourself, since the need for connection with others is such a fundamental part of who we are as human beings.
