What defines us more - our thoughts or our actions?

Details

Are we the sum of our inner world – our thoughts, beliefs, intentions?
Or are we ultimately defined by what we do, how we show up, and the choices we make?

We might describe ourselves through thoughts and intentions: “I meant well.” “That’s not who I really am.” Yet in the eyes of others — and often in the eyes of the world — it is our actions that define us.

Let´s explore that space between intention and action through questions like:

  • What matters more: intention or impact?
  • If someone has good intentions but causes harm — what does that say about who they are?
  • Do our actions always reflect who we are – or can they be misleading?
  • Are our thoughts a true reflection of who we are?
  • Do you feel more aligned with your thoughts or your behavior in daily life?

Some quotes as food for thought:

“You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.” – Carl Jung
OR
“A man is but the product of his thoughts – what he thinks, he becomes.".” – Mahatma Gandhi

Please note, that in order to support the room provider we will ask for some vountary donations.
