Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 17, Verse 3

Krishna said
सत्त्वानुरूपा सर्वस्य श्रद्धा भवति भारत।श्रद्धामयोऽयं पुरुषो यो यच्छ्रद्धः स एव सः ॥17.3॥

sattvānurūpā sarvasya śraddhā bhavati bhārataśraddhāmayo'yaṃ puruṣo yo yacchraddhaḥ sa eva saḥ

Meaning

Everyone's faith takes the shape of their inner nature, Arjuna. A person is made of faith: whatever they truly put their faith in, that is what they become.

हिंदी में अर्थ

हे भारत, हर व्यक्ति की श्रद्धा उसके अंदर के स्वभाव के अनुसार होती है। मनुष्य श्रद्धा से ही बना है; वह जिस चीज़ में सच्ची श्रद्धा रखता है, वैसा ही बन जाता है।

How did repeating your new sentence change the way you acted today, even slightly?
