In order to transform your life, you must take the time to decide what you want that transformation to look like. In other words what do you want to Be, Do, and Have?
Most people do not live the life of their dreams because they have never taken the time to decide on their desires, and hence cannot start taking the steps to get there.
"It's in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped." Anthony Robins
Taking a personal inventory by asking your-self some simple questions is the first step to making effective decisions.
What does a successful, fulfilling, and happy life look and feel like to you?
What is currently working well in your life and what is not? What do you want to see manifest for yourself short term and long term? Why do you want to change in your circumstances and how will that make you feel? How will you feel in 1 year or 5 years time if nothing changes?
Open your mind to possibilities. To everything that currently exists there are two sides; first there is a conceptual side and then there is a physical side. Everything is first a thought before it becomes a manifestation.
The architect sees the fabulous building with the exquisite design in his mind, before he decides to get to work on the blue prints.
You need to first see the desired changes in your mind, and feel the excitement before you see it manifest in your life. Only then will you make successful decisions and take actions that will lead you to your desired outcomes.
Allow yourself to start dreaming again. This is a time of stimulation and of anticipation. What can you imagine blooming for you?
By the way, it is as much work to dream small as it is to dream BIG. So you may as well dream big.
Once you decide on the changes you would like to see for yourself, then, it is time to start taking inspired action. Remember, not everything and everyone around you needs to be perfect before you attempt to improve your life. If you work on yourself the things and people around you will automatically start changing for the better. You will also start to attract the resources, people, events, and circumstances that will help you move towards your desired success.
The day I personally gave up being CEO of the universe and thinking that I needed to "fix" things, and decided to focus more on improving myself internally, everything started to run smoother.
"If you put off everything "till you're sure of it, you'll get nothing done." Norman Vincent Peale
In our western culture we have for the most part been led to believe that we need to have certain things before we can do what we want, and then we will begin to be the person we want to be.
We say things like, "When I have more time or more energy I will start thinking about changing careers." "When the kids are grown I will start to travel." You could be waiting for a very long time. You may have already noticed that the time is never just right to take the decisions that will lead you to success.
