A New Perspective
In setting intentions for our growth and expansion, begin with an honest look at our thoughts, attitudes and belief system. These are the driving forces behind everything we think, do and do not do. As Henry Ford so aptly pointed out, “Whether you think you can or whether you think you can’t, you’re right.” Thus, it works like this:
- Our thoughts trigger emotions.
- Our emotions shape our attitude.
- Our attitude drives our behaviors.
- And our behaviors determine our outcomes.
To change the chain reaction of this series and produce a new/different outcome, we must begin at the root. Do this by “noticing what we are noticing.” What draws our attention? What do we place value on? What do we judge as right or wrong? Can these thoughts/judgments be expanded to include shades of gray which are not necessarily right or wrong? Do any of our beliefs need to be reexamined and/or challenged? Can we entertain a new perspective that can lead us to a different outcome?
This type of honest reflection can lead us to a new perspective that triggers a metamorphosis. Per Stuart Wilde, “A plane that changes its course by only 1 degree will arrive in a totally different destination.” Thus, from challenging our thoughts and attitudes, a new philosophy may emerge that better suits us in our life journey. Going back to our chain above,
- A new perspective will lead to new thoughts.
- These new thoughts will elicit new and different emotions.
- Fresh emotions will change our attitude,
- A changed attitude drives different behaviors.
- And different behaviors will determine new and hopefully better outcomes.
Therefore,
Change your thinking, change your life! Think and dream BIG!
May you experience an empowering and joyful life beginning NOW!
Thoughts to Nurture Your Soul and Support You On Your Path
When you fail at something, rather than viewing it as a “failure” with a negative label that you beat yourself up about, try thinking of it as “learning by doing”. You have now experienced a way or a thought that does not serve you or get you where you want to go. Therefore, realize that you have actually made progress and congratulate yourself!
“Your perceived failure can become the catalyst for profound reinvention.” Conan O’Brien
Genius is the ability to reduce the complicated to the simple.
Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom.
Your values will shape and drive your destiny. Make sure your values are in alignment with your heart!
If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door. Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.
