Transform outdated habits

Wherever you are, you might not yet feel as though you're embracing your destiny as fully as you could be.  You may readily accept doing things you aren't passionate about.  You may devote time to activities that do nothing for you.  You may wonder when you'll finish even before you start.  Ever hear the phrase, "old habits die hard?"

When how you choose to live your life doesn't stimulate your enthusiasm, doesn't inspire you, it can seem monotonous, pointless, even down-right boring at times.  Some things may have become habits.  Ever meet a person who doens't know the meaning of the word "boring?" Do they glow with happiness or limitless energy?

You need not continue to live as you have been.  As you examine your life and become aware of certain choices that don't work for you, this is a sign its time for a different outlook.  All you need to do is re-train your mind.  It requires some effort and a little discipline.  Think of it this way: you are who you are because you think how you thought.  You are where you are in life because of choices you made in the past.  This said, life will evolve, but only when you're ready.

If some aspect of your life is getting you down, then that's where you need to focus new kinds of attention.  You can listen to motivational tapes, go to seminars, read uplifting books, write and state affirmations aloud.  All these kinds of things can positively affect your attitude. What else might you explore? How you think about yourself is projected into your life choices.  Who you spend time with and how they treat you reflects whether or not you value and respect yourself.  

Granted, its unlikely a career can be changed overnight or, a relationship will evolve differently at the snap of your fingers.  If your health has been in flux, you may not have an immediate recovery.  However, adopting the mindset that your situation can change will make all the difference.  Ask yourself these three questions:

1) What do I really want out of life?

2) Who can I contact/interact with who motivates and excites me?

3) Where will I seek wisdom and lessons from outside myself?

Good Thursday morning to you, Liara ! How are you doing ?

I love making changes like that, implementing things, getting such satisfaction at doing so, with the resulting increase in confidence. Life can always be gradually changed as we choose to revise it in ways we can (assuming your health lets you).

I just meant that this applies to people who aren't terminally ill in bed....

This post rings well with me. I have just reached a milestone in my life. I turned 40. I feel it is time to re-create myself. Not because of the number but because of a series of events. I was diagnosed with epilepsy two years ago. I am still working on getting them under control so that I may drive again. I live in a very rural area so by not being able to commute to work I had to quit my job. I find that my interests are changing vastly. I found that I love to remodel! I am quite the handywoman too. I never knew I had this potential.

I am one of those who are never bored. I am quite happy with each second of my life. There seems to never be enough hours. I think everything happens for a reason. Many times this pushes us to grow even more.

You have a wonderful blog. I will have to stop by and read more in depth.

Loving Annie, great to hear from you! Each day is full of opportunities to learn more about ourselves and how life can be more fulfilling. Whenever we learn something isn't working for us, we can make different decisions about pursuits that would be better suited to who we are. Perception evolves as we evolve. You can choose to be passive, declare life may change you or, you can also be proactive and grow at will.

From my view, health begins as a state of mind. People choose to succomb to discomfort or, adapt and evolve based on their attitude and what they gain from their circumstances. You can choose to be a victim or a victor. You can gain something from every experience. Yet, do you do senes and appreciate it?

Titania, milestones can all be seen as achievements. We can always choose to evolve gracefully. Some people refuse to believe they age, period. They don't permit living longer to hold them back from being the best they can be, based on capacities & faculties at their disposal.

Your determination to adjust to your health issues has clearly enabled you to discover some fabulous hidden talents. It pays to focus not on what you sense you lose, but on what change means you gain. Positive thinking boosts your morale and can keep it floating. It comes down to a question of self-acceptance and choice.

"How you think about yourself is projected into your life choices."

Ohhh,this sentence struck a cord with me! Very, very true and yet much easier to see in retrospect. I think I'm going to think about how this has played out in the past and try to view in the present and project into the future. If nothing else a new way of thinking that I haven't tried before :)

Jenny, nice to hear about your openess to growth. Raising awareness is a fulfilling conscious choice. Being proactive means choosing to get the most out of life.

Many people live completely oblivious to their choices. We can always learn to recognize patterns in behavior and emotional reactions. Ask yourself why certain people repeat choices in unfulfilling relationships, put up with lack of job satisfaction or, simply refuse to the signs all around them. We can all develop ESP and it begins with learning to read ourselves, all the positive and negative vibes.
