It Is That Time AGAIN!
Just how many times do we go round in circles trying to find something new to do, when suddenly we find that what was new is simply another test. Yes, we take the old ways of dealing with something new and try to make a go of it and yet again we have failure as the result.
So why do we do this? It is a simple answer! We believe that what we learned from our family, friends and associates is the correct way we were taught and is best, since it is known and safe.
The truth is that everything we do is out of date. I am 76 yers old on 24th June. I must admits that for each of my 5 year slots, I have had challenges that were always in some way a new experience, but the truth is my own inner doubt and fear made me try not to change to do things differently. Plus as a child I learned that if you do things differently, the adults will be angry. So I embraced their ways and made them my habit. So as those 5 year cycles came and went, I tried to adhere to those first early years. Then I spent hours being angry that for all my hard work, nothing was happening.
So now that you know this, be a friend to yourself and make the change. Do everything differntly. Even work and eat with your non-dominant hand. Trust your brain that it will re-asses and come up with a new approach that does not include old habits, ways and mens. So face your fear of not being accepted and failing and turn it into the excitement of haveing a go with something so new that you get excited to try and in the momentum of all this, find your own way to do business, make friends and have a good life. Plan for a great 5 year cycle.
