As an artist looks at his or her piece of stone and endlessly questions new ways to shape it, the same way you need to see yourself? ?as a work of art, always in progress. No need to get upset, or come down hard on yourself when you see things are not working instead look at them from a different perspective or take a break.
Find the habit associated with the thing you want to change. Far too often, people focus too much on the thing they want to change instead of the habits that formed the thing in the first place. They try to solve being overweight by doing a lot of ab exercises, without acknowledging that the problem is their poo and non-managed diet.
To truly reinvent aspects of yourself, you have to find the habit that created that trait in the first place? ?and then adjust the routine.
Repeat every day. Change is not something you do some days and then take a break from other days, change is a shift in lifestyle. It requires daily dedication, to the point where that new habit takes the place of an old one and no longer requires conscious effort.
Remember to keep real to your goals because you can’t just wake up one morning and say, “I’m not going to be impatient anymore!”
Constantly Reflect. Things get dangerous when you refuse to stop and really look at yourself? when you avoid self-reflection. You will quickly find that unless you take the time to ask yourself the tough questions, you will fall off track and not know how you got there.
You will never become the person you want to be by continuing to be the person you currently are. Growth’s only request is that you step out of your comfort zone. That’s it. And unless you are willing to take that risk, to take that uncomfortable leap into the unknown, you will forever stay exactly where you are.
