We mostly act and make decisions based upon our beliefs. If you believe the world is a bad place, then you are less likely to talk to or place your trust in others.
It doesn’t mean you’re right or you're wrong. You just “are” because of what you choose (or accept) as a belief.
Some people think that human beings are capable of doing great things no matter the circumstance. Is that true? I don’t know. But when people believe that, they tend to feel better about the world around them, and they tend to be kinder to themselves (and therefore kinder to others).
Can this get them hurt or taken advantage of? You bet. But so can being paranoid.
Or how about this belief: the more of yourself you give to the world, the more you can receive from the world.
My guess is most people don’t have this belief. Maybe they’ve never taken the time to think about it… and if they did, perhaps they would adopt such a belief. Or maybe when they were young, someone told them a different belief that was counter to this, and they just chose to take on that belief instead.
Here’s another belief that I hope resonates with you - you deserve happiness. A lot of people don’t believe they deserve to be happy and therefore they never are. I say that with all the compassion in the world.
If you were told growing up that you were a burden, or worse, that you were worthless, it’s hard to believe you deserve happiness. Or perhaps you’ve made some bad choices in your life that led to others getting hurt - and now you carry around the guilt, and your lack of happiness is your punishment.
All of these are valid beliefs. It’s just that some are more empowering than others.
Regardless, most people take a formal look at their beliefs, and test them against other beliefs to see if maybe the beliefs of the past no longer serve the person you are in the present.
