Move. Adjust. Stir.
Just don’t stay in the same spot one
moment longer.
If you believed that the world was
going to end today, ushering in aliens from another planet into the earth, you
surely are as disappointed as I am. I was really looking out for a glimpse of
outer space. And like a psychopath said, I was looking forward to catching my
alien pet too! lol.
Hey, wake up! The world won’t end
just like that! Before you realize it, it will be 2013. You have a few days to
do a few things that can make the New Year count for maximum good. I’m not
talking about New Year resolutions, neither am I referring to New Year goals. This
is my word to you: SHIFT!
Shift in these four directions:
1. Shift
from where you are. Don’t
let the New Year catch you in the spot you currently occupy. Eleven days are
enough to make some of progress. I know that the traditional practice by most
people is to give up on the year once we are a few days to Christmas, but the
truth remains that the year ends at 11:59:59 on December 31! Before you throw
in the towel, let that moment arrive first. Give a few more shots; take a
couple of extra attempts; try again. Whatever you do, ensure that you make
progress – however little it may seem.
2. Shift
from what you’ve been doing.
Doing the same thing guarantees the same results. Take a different approach. Adopt
a practice you’ve hitherto neglected. Try something new. Make a shift in your
habits; start forming new ones. You should know that habits can be formed and
unformed. Stop what you have been doing that has brought you to where you are
right now.
3. Shift
from how you have been thinking.
Your thinking has attracted all that you see in your life today. If your
experience will change in the coming year, then you must shift in your mind. Re-program
your mind to conform to your dreams. Change your school of thought about your
state of health, financial life and even your spirit.
4. Shift
from what you have been learning.
You can never be more intelligent than the quality of your information sources.
If your information sources are healthy, then you need to increase the quantity
of what you learn. When you increase the quantity of what you learn, you need
to be consistent in the art of learning. Who you learn from controls the
outcome of your future. Take precaution in choosing what you read, who you
listen to, and what you watch. Don’t forget that the power of the remote
control is in the red button.
SHIFT...from where you are, from what
you've been doing, from how you have been thinking...to how you ought to be.
