Let’s face it – Habits are
hard to break. It is why sometimes
humans have to keep getting back up on the horse to begin again to ‘try again’
once they fall back into the gravity of old behavior.
The good news?
This LINK can be changed.
The bad news?
Only YOU can change it.
Worse news?
If you think, “only you
can change it” is bad news, and then you probably will not ever change it.
WHY?
Because your perspective
is already on the default of negative thinking.
HOW?
If you read the words as “only
you can change it” as bad news, this is indicative of your reading a sentence
and adopting it and adapting it as so.
This is a test.
The REAL NEWS?
You can choose anytime
you wish to read, “Only you can change it” as a positive thing and choose to
see that as self-empowerment.
If you choose to not see
it that way, perhaps it is time to dig a little deeper and ask yourself WHY you
did not see that having the responsibility of changing and tweaking YOUR OWN
LINK as a good thing.
THE TRUTH?
It is a good thing. It is the very best thing – because you are
the driver of your own life’s vehicle.
That’s right. You are the driver. So if you choose to see that you can change
your perspective because you are empowered to change your perspective instead
of falling into an old habit of falling into the negative place, it means you
can always move forward and be positive.
NOTHING has to BE… except
YOU and your openness.
It is that simple.
When you are comfortable
with the idea you are sticking to a plan to make changes for the better and
changes for the positive, even if others choose not to agree with you – you still
have the choice to stay the path.
This is what most humans
miss.
It is YOUR LIFE.
It is YOUR JOURNEY.
No one else gets to live
your life but you.
Did a light bulb just go
on?
Did you finally SEE IT?
It’s cool, eh?
We are not imprisoned by
a LINK staying the same unless we choose to always LINK to that LINK
itself.
Our journey is what we
make it.
Our destiny is its own
master plan.
We can take all the
detours or scenic routes we wish to take.
However, nothing has to
be permanent. Nothing has to stay
temporary either.
The LINKS in your life are gifts all by themselves.
You can learn and grow
from them.
You can honor what they teach
you.
You can be grateful for
all of them if you examine them as tools to make you wiser, stronger, better
and more educated about your own choices.
It is in those choices we have the opportunity to embrace our mistakes. It is here that we have a window to learn and
get back up on that horse again if we choose.
We can also choose to pet
the horse and say, “Thank you, you can rest, I’ve appreciated the view from
here, but I can walk because I am strong enough to keep going.”
Our perspective is LINKED
to learned behavior, adopted or acquired behavior. We can also ADAPT and be FLEXIBLE within what
we know to explore new vistas of what we do not know.
Again, this is our choice
to do so.
This is where perspective
sometimes remains stagnant.
The analytical person can
spend a great deal of time over-analyzing it.
The action-oriented
person may take a lot of action, but because there was not enough thought
behind what’s going on, everything remains the same.
The open person can
sometimes be too open and not make a choice as to which perspective is best
suited until they clean up the old mess, which came before the opportunity.
The closed person can sometimes
repel for fear of change.
The rational person can
act like the closed person, but be too practical about the change to make one.
The free-bird can choose
everything and sometimes not realize by doing that, the perspective never takes
its new shape because there is too much happening.
Which person are YOU?
Do you know?
Are you aware of what
YOUR OWN RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR PERSPECTIVE looks like?
HOW DO YOU LINK TO WHAT
YOU THINK?
Think about that for a
second or ten or more and think about it again.
It is in this ‘place’
where we understand ourselves; we get to understand who we are and what our own
thoughts actually create within our daily life.
How does yours look?
Take time for yourself to
ask yourself all of these questions. You
may surprise yourself with your own answers, because you are always so busy and
too busy to actually think about the stuff that may be affecting your
perspective!
This is most likely to be
the case.
In any regard – remember that
you are in a place to tweak your LINK and tweak how you LINK to your own LINKS
in your journey as you live it.
None of us is really
stuck like we think we are. It just may
be our perspective which needs shifting and changing and letting those thoughts
influence and affect what else is happening WITHIN US – so that we ourselves
can improve upon what is going on.
You have the power to
change your LINKS at ANY TIME – on YOUR TIMELINE… not someone else’s.
For all you know the
perspective you have right now is purposeful, even if it is to stall you temporarily
from making a faux pas. Remember, even
delays are gifts!
But then… you have to
have that perspective to see it.
Namaste.
