"Vemos el mundo, no como es, sino como somos o como estamos condicionados a verlo."
— Stephen Covey

Simplified Meaning:
People tend to view the world based on their personal experiences, beliefs, and upbringing rather than seeing things objectively. For example, two people walking through the same park might notice completely different things. Someone who loves nature may focus on the beauty of the trees and flowers, while someone who recently had a bad experience outdoors might only notice potential dangers or unpleasant bugs. This shows that our perspectives are shaped by our individual backgrounds. To live better, it's helpful to remember that everyone sees things differently. By understanding this, we can be more open-minded and empathetic towards others.
