“To get something you never had, you have to
do something you’ve never done.” ~Unknown
Maybe you feel stuck. Or bored. Or frustrated. It’s not
that you don’t like the life you live, it’s just that you suspect there’s
something more. Some greater sense of meaning or excitement. New connections.
New adventures. New possibilities.
The truth is those possibilities are always within your
reach. You may not be able to quit your job or develop new skills, but every
day contains within it countless opportunities, all dictated by the choices you
make. Some of those choices may seem inconsequential when you face them.
They’re the little things, after all. Why not do it how you usually do? Why not
stay in your comfort zone when it’s just so comfortable there?
Do it for the possibility. The possibility that if you
make one minor change you may set the stage for major fulfilment. Sometimes
even the smallest shift in thinking or doing can create the biggest
opportunity.
GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD
1. Challenge your beliefs about what you can and can’t
do. Maybe you are a good leader.
3. Have a vision session. Write in a journal, sketch—anything that lets you explore what
excites you most.
4. Look for opportunities in a tough situation. Avoid a
victim mentality, and opt instead for a “ready for new beginnings” attitude.
5. Remove something from your life that doesn’t serve you
to make room for something better and new. You never know what you might let in
when you let something go.
6. Commit to something you always say you’ll do but
always fail to start—and then take the first step right now.
7. Turn your focus from something don’t want to something
you do want. This allows you to shift your energy from complaining to taking
action.
8. Replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Positive
energy creates positive results.
9. Identify the blocks that keep you from breaking a bad
habit. Anytime you improve your habits, you pave the path for personal
excellence.
10. Forgive someone if you’ve been holding a grudge.
Removing that block will open you up where previously you’d shut down.
There’s a lot of information here—way more than you can
tackle all at once. But it’s more about quality than quantity. Even just one
small change can have a ripple effect into every area of your life. Of course
it’s up to you to decide what’s possible.
How do you
open your world to new possibilities?
