Yes, I thoroughly agree with the opinion of Dr. Ellis. It is very much true that one’s own thought process would have significant implications on the way one interacts or react in some specific situation. This happens because of the fact that our thoughts are mainly shaped with the process of upbringing and the culture, amidst which one takes birth. Therefore, it could be stated that feelings and behaviors are mainly a reflection of what thoughts and attitudes one carries within one’s himself.
