Beware The Perspective Killers What's Really Important Right Now?

'Your perspective will either become your prison or your passport' - Steven Furtick

At times we get caught up with ‘perspective KILLERS’ – things that aren’t really important but in a moment in time take over everything else. A dish left on the bench above the dishwasher, a child’s toy was not put away, shoes left in the front entry, a empty toilet roll not replaced, or even the trash not being taken out.

When was the last time you chose to stand back and really reflect on what is important to you? How would your ‘perspective line’ look in order of importance? 

• Most important to me right now?
• Moderately important to me right now? 
• Least important to me right now? 

It’s also worth reflecting on what events have occurred in the past for you that have tested your resilience to its breaking point. What became most important in these times?

I have provided an editable perspective line/resilience activity to undertake and provided my latest one as an example of how I approached it.
