You attract what you are, not what you want. The Universe always balances itself out. Hence, Yin and Yang is everywhere we look and everywhere we cannot see.

1. Fact

Definition:
A fact is something that is objectively real and can be proven to be true. It exists independently of what anyone thinks or believes.

Example:

• It is a fact that Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere.

Key Points:

• Facts don’t change based on opinion.
• They can be verified with evidence (e.g. scientific data, observation, reliable records).
• Facts are the foundation upon which truth claims and beliefs can be tested.

2. Truth

Definition:
Truth is a quality of a statement or belief that accurately reflects reality or fact.

Example:

• “Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere” is a true statement because it corresponds with the fact.

Key Points:

• Truth depends on alignment with facts.
• Truth is often expressed in language or claims (“That’s true”, “That’s not true”).
• Something can be true even if no one believes it (e.g. the Earth orbited the Sun even when most people thought otherwise).

3. Belief

Definition:
A belief is something a person thinks or accepts as true, whether or not it actually is.

Example:

• Someone might believe that kangaroos can be kept as pets in all Australian states — but that belief isn’t necessarily true or factual.

Key Points:

• Beliefs are subjective — they vary between individuals and cultures.
• A belief can be true or false, depending on whether it aligns with facts.
• People often act based on their beliefs, regardless of whether they are accurate.

How They Interact

• A belief can be true or false:
  → If your belief aligns with fact, it’s true.
  → If not, it’s false — even if sincerely held.
• Truth depends on fact:
  → A statement is true if it correctly describes a fact.
• Facts stand alone:
  → They are not changed by belief or opinion.
