When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change…
Have you heard this saying?
It was one of my favorite teachers, the great Wayne Dyer, who said it. And, once I started really working with it, it changed my life.
I had no idea how attached I was to the way I saw things.
And I am continually amazed at the connection between my emotional well being and the stories I tell myself about myself, other people, the things that happen in my life, and even the world in general.
Most people tend to think of change as something elusive, difficult, and even futile.
There’s no question that change can be difficult. We’re all creatures of habit . We tend to do things (the way we think, the ways we behave) the way we’ve always done them. But it is possible to shift your perspective. And the truth is that it’s much easier than you think. It just takes practice.
“It’s all in how you look at things.”
These words from The Phantom Tollbooth character Alec Bings are the essence of this truth. Shifting your perspective is an incredibly simple yet awesomely powerful skill you can learn to incorporate into your life.
