A Little PERSPECTIVE Goes a Long Way

image1

Hello %FirstName%.

Happy New Year. How has 2016 started for you? Are you having fun; living with joy and passion? Or are you feeling a bit flat about this whole year?

I’m going to start the year by focussing on attitude and perspective, because if you choose the right attitude and how you’re going to view thing, then wherever you are and whatever you’re doing, you’ll have a whole lot more fun and be a whole lot more successful.

Lets open the box and find out more.

The Perspective Directive

I’ve got two things for you to do this month, particularly in the moments when things don’t appear to be going right or seem like a drudge.

Firstly, ask yourself how you’re choosing to look at the situation. We all look at the world through the lens of our values and experiences. So try a different pair of specs on and look again. Asking yourself “what would I rather have and how else could I choose to experience this situation?” will help you do this.

Secondly, get a bit of perspective. How important will this thing be tomorrow, next week, next month, in 10 years? Try to mentally step back and look at the situation from a distance – you might get some interesting insights.

When you’ve got 5 minutes to spare, have a look at this video from Carl Segan (click here to watch). If this doesn’t put things into perspective, I’m not sure what will!!

Have a fabulous month and remember: Happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.

Supporting your success.

Dave
