There is nothing good or bad, only thinking makes it so mbarendezvous.com
William Shakespeare conveyed in one of his plays, the Hamlet, that “There is nothing good or bad, only thinking makes it so”. It is true that we label certain events as good as certain events as bad. It is because we have been taught from a young age to differentiate good from bad.
These terms are subjective in nature. What is considered good for one person can be bad for another. Our interpretations of events are based on our cultural backgrounds and upbringing, which shape our thinking.
For example, in India, killing a cow and eating beef are considered bad because Indians worship cows. However, outside India, eating beef and killing cows is common and not considered bad.
Beef is a form of diet, and is a delicacy. So, why is it that Indians consider the killing of cows wrong whereas people abroad just view cows as food? This is because from young, Indians have been socialized into thinking that a cow represents the symbol of Dharma. This is not so for other races and religions.

Good and bad occurrences are classified by the behavior of the majority of the population. So, if an event occurs only in the minority of the population, it is considered taboo. For example, in the past, a marriage between people of the same gender was considered taboo by people all around the world.
Today, societies are slowly accepting such marriages, although they are still frowned upon to a certain extent. The fact that the viewpoints of people are changing shows that our classification of things in society are based on our thoughts, which can be altered from time to time; they are not fixed.
Many things that were considered taboo in the past are not necessarily bad today. In modern India, we see an increase in the number of inter caste marriages, a change in the dressing sense of women and a change in people’s lifestyles in general. This is because no event or occurrence is bad or good. It is only based on our thinking, which is fluid in nature, shaped by the forces of society.

Nothing is Either Good or Bad But Thinking Makes it So Lawrence Gregory
“Nothing is either good or bad, but thinking makes it so” – William Shakespeare
Is this really true? Well in my opinion yes it is because reality itself is neutral and we give it meaning through our mind/perception.
For example, the weather isn’t good or bad, our thinking makes it so. The weather is just the weather and it’s completely neutral. You can complain all you like about it being cold and wet but it want change the fact that it’s neutral…
Our day at work wasn’t good or bad, but thinking makes it so. Okay annoying things happen from time to time but if we can change our perception towards things then we can change ourselves. And usually for the better!
Nothing is inherently good or bad in this universe… we have the ability to create a duality of good and bad through our minds.
Another way to understand why this concept is true is to realize not everyone will see something in the same way. As an example. Say me and you go to watch a football match, I really enjoyed the match whilst you didn’t.
So was the game good or bad? Was I right that the game was good? No of course not, it was from my perspective that the game was good in the same way that it’s from your perspective that the game was ‘bad’.
If something was ‘set in stone’ good or bad then whenever something happened, we’d all respond in the same way, does this make sense?
If we want to experience less pain and frustration in life then it is wise to adopt a neutral standpoint towards everything. This doesn’t mean that you have a cold heart and have no emotional involvement in anything.
It just means you respect your mental well-being enough to realise that getting tied up in the ‘good & bad’ polarity will cause more “bad” than “good.”
What did you think of this? have you heard about this concept before of was it the first time you’ve heard of it? If so, then has it made you think a little? Tell me your thoughts by leaving a comment in the section below and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
