The nature of our minds affects everything about us:

There is this story that I’ve heard a few times.

A new guy comes into town and asked the first person he sees what type of people are in this town. The man replies what type of people are there where you are from?

Another new guy comes into town and asks the first person he sees what type of people are there in this town. The man replies what type of people are there back where you are from. The new guys says everyone is friendly and nice, a lot of good people. The man says then that’s what you will find here.
