" Whenever we resist something—perhaps an unkind remark, a shocking event, or a depressing feeling—our very resistance indicates a belief in the power of that event to hurt us. Although it is really powerless, our mistaken belief in it induces despair.
But by not resisting, we dissolve the false belief and consequently the false power for harm. "

― Vernon Howard , Psycho-Pictography: The New Way to Use the Miracle Power of Your Mind
