Could you imagine someone telling you that if you don't
do something, you're going to suffer a horrible punishment and possibly
death, because you chose to ignore their message. Can simple words
create powerful beliefs, isn't this what some religious doctrine
creates. Even the media does it, think about it the next time you turn
your television on or read the newspaper.
You seem to believe something because someone told you that's how it is
and when you go to question them, they simply repeat the simple
statement, that's how is. It's hard to imagine a few words, articulated
almost perfectly can create an overwhelming emotion in someone.
The Germans used propaganda to create fear with a few of these words.
It's not just a few of these words, there's more power behind these
words if their repeated often. These words can build up someone's hopes
and dreams or tear them apart.
Is there a quote that you're fond of? You probably memorized it and it
has some sort of significance or creates a certain feeling when
mentioned. Quotes are organized words that create powerful beliefs in
some people.
If I mention the words," I have a dream" you probably think of Martin
Luther King. These four words meant a lot to people that were struggling
for their freedom, not only in America but around the world. These words
are a example of powerful words that have created a wonderful feeling.
When these powerful words create fear you know it. If you watch the
news, night after night and they keep telling you how bad the economy
is, it doesn't take long before you believe it. You tighten up your
budget and stop spending money, because you are now fearful and don't
want to lose what you have. When everyone starts holding onto their
money, the economy actually does become worse over time.
Can simple words create powerful beliefs? Yes obviously they can and
they do, so be careful when listening to words that create fear and try
not to spread this fear around to others. Fear can be turned into relief
if the right words are used, I would suggest using happy words to create
a happy world. Have a nice day.
