I know how I see life!
I’m clear on what my journey has been and my experience and intuition guide me!
Then I take a step back and notice that my behavior and my decisions when faced with choice are guided by perspective. My Perspective!
How do I open up and allow a new perspective? There are infinite possibilities when faced with choice and I let my emotions get all tangled up in the direction I’m taking based on past lessons.
So, I decide to listen to new perspectives. I decide to take time to really listen and not interrupt others, even thought I want to interrupt. I want to interrupt because I have perspective and experience to share that might help someone else.
But I’m trying to learn something new! I’m trying to quite my mind and listen. I find it very hard! My ego is shouting to me that “I know best!”
Still I stop. I regroup and remind myself I’m practicing listening to others.
I’m working on opening my mind to something new. I’m working on the possibility of gaining new insight and a new approach to an old challenge.
I value the people I’ve asked for a new perspective from in the past. And I find that they have begun to “know me” and may be feeding me information they “think” I want to hear. So I seek out people I respect that I have not asked for perspective from in the past. I listen to what they think.
I’m challenging myself to try something new and to allow new opportunities for my life.
I find my brain almost hurts with the influx of new thoughts and I struggle to let go of the definitions I have of myself and the definitions I let others use to describe me.
I’m trying to open up and it’s difficult.
I take one day at a time and encourage myself to continue with the practice of gaining new perspectives!
