People can bring fun, shortcuts and opportunities. Of course they can bring hardship, drama and chaos too. But we like to look on the bright side. Besides, if the new person brings anything but great things to our life, then we exit them immediately, Stage left.
Great people, we keep. Then we involve them more in our life in various ways.
Build your life team. Make it a dream team.
So you think you want to change. Great!! This could be a great adventure and get you to the life you dream of.
However, wanting to change, to have a different outcome, doesn’t mean you’re willing to change.
You have to be willing to change, and not just willing if someone else encourages you, sets it out for you or forces you. You have to say goodbye to the old you, burn the boats, and dive in to this new you. You have to be completely committed to this new you and don’t look back with fear or longing.
When you willingly make a change, you will find success. You will commit to the process and the new outcome. Wave goodbye to the old you. You’re never going back.
It’s easy to find the negative in pretty much anything. Now make your brain work a little harder. Find the positive in everything.
Why?
First, while you’re busy looking for positive things to say, your brain will be too busy to notice the negative things. Secondly, by looking for the positive, you’ll create a habit for yourself and looking for the positive will get easier and become default normal.
Thirdly, you’ll soon be a happier person overall and everyone you know will notice the wonderful difference.
You may need to change your job, career, house or car to improve your situation. Maybe changing some habits would help.
Whatever it is, it is time to do it.
Get into your groove early in the day. Get ahead of the game. You also will have more day hours to get things done while others are awake and available and when offices are open.
You can do just about anything, but you have to want it more than anything else. Few people are willing to sacrifice and persevere long enough to achieve their goals.
With a big enough why, you will find the discipline to stay the course until your are successful.
Sometimes you need to go very fast or stay extra late. It might be to get work done before a holiday, or finish your project or university application. Regardless of what it is for, occasionally you need to go all out and blast through things with crazy intent.
You can always catch up on sleep once the storm has passed.
Chat more with friends and families. You will learn a lot and everyone should get closer. Take the time to make these conversations happen. You’ll be glad you did as the relationships grow.
When starting something new, take time to find your feet. Remain patient. Look for little wins.
There are always opportunities to learn a few things. Sometimes you don’t even notice the opportunity. So keep your eye out to try to find those moments that you otherwise might miss.
