The 21st century has brought on a whole new set of challenges for many of us, bringing the infamous how to change your life topic to new and unexpected heights. To steal a line from one of my faves, Lewis Black; "Even a good fiction writer couldn't have come up with this."
The question is now: So, do I have to reinvent myself after all this time? The answer, yes...and no. With the job market bordering on chaos, and the collapse of both the industrial age as well as a good part of the information age, the reinvention of potentially our entire persona does become a consideration for some. At first glance, that statement can look completely overwhelming. But here's the trick.
Change won't happen overnight, but it will happen for you if you are willing to take three simple steps. Regardless of your faith, or what you believe, this plan will work for you. You only need to commit to 30 minutes each day to see lasting success. Try this plan every day for 21 days. Almost any habit can be developed, or broken, in only 21 days. If you really want to get the most from it, then commit to an hour a day. Although this may seem hard at first, once you start to reap the results, you won't want to do anything else. It will become a part of your daily routine.
Just think of it as a movie screen and the film being projected onto that screen as being yourself, your beliefs. As soon as you change your beliefs that new imagine will then be the one reflected back to you.
Now you know what is the problem but knowing about a problem and actually doing something about it are two totally different things. What is needed is a process which will automatically change your belief system to produce positive results.
I followed those 3 steps. What I began to see that I totally owned when I storyboarded my strengths was my creative talent as well as my strength as a speaker per se after 30 years of teaching. I looked at that relationship in a bit of a new way and realized I could redirect both of those talents. I then proceeded to quote unquote reinvent myself and became a creative consultant to individuals, and eventually groups. Are we clear? I did reinvent myself, and not. I already owned those talents.
Meditate. Meditation is one of the best ways to help you relax both mind and body and then get focused. Focus is key to reaching all your goals, so you want to get as focused as you possibly can. The secret to changing your life and getting what you want is doing things that will take you to your goals. You start with belief, and then you take action. Use meditation to help you get rid of all the distractions in your life and focus on what is important.
Exercise. No self help plan would be complete without exercise. Exercise gets your blood flowing and will give you more energy. You will feel and look so much better, and if you do something that is high in intensity, then you can get fit as well. My routine generally includes The 5 Tibetan Rites every day, and then alternating between squats one day and pushups the other.
