One Problem with wanting Change...
This week I'm sharing 3 simple steps for whatever shifts you may want to make.
You may not believe it can be this simple.
Which is paradoxically one of the biggest obstacles to change.
I'll let you decide.
Have a great weekend.
Just as a skier experiences the snow and scenery through the lenses of their goggles
We each experience the world through the lenses of our assumptions and beliefs.
And what we're mentally accepting as true.
According to the latest physics and modern neuroscience, we're only ever experiencing our own mental projections.
When skiing, the snow is the snow...
But if my goggle lenses are blue, the snow appears to me to be tinted blue.
Just as if my lenses are pink, the snow appears as pink.
When it comes to creating shifts in our business or life, the only challenge is this...
Trying to get our world to look pink, orange or green whilst continuing to look through blue lenses.
Therefore making the changes we want seem so slow, hard or impossible.
Thankfully, to create the experiences we do want...
We can distil it into 3 simple steps.
The first step is most important but also most overlooked and least taught.
Although our own experience is our best teacher if we're willing to look.
1. Be willing to take our goggles off to see the snow as it really is.
- a colourless, blank canvas of pure potential with no agenda of its own and no objections to how we may choose to colour it with our own thinking and assumptions.
- the snow doesn't care one bit what lenses we choose to put in our goggles!
- neither does the mind. We just perceive with our senses the evidence of what we think.

2. Decide how we now desire to experience our world and choose goggles to match.
- sales, clients, business, money, health, other people, relationships, time, creativity, easy, difficult, etc.
3. Put our new goggles on.
Choose to consciously think and assume in line with what we desire to experience.
Whilst understanding circumstances mould themselves in relation our assumptions and beliefs. It's how Consciousness and the mind work.
Unconditionally showing us we're right based on our lenses / way of thinking.
That's it.
We can strive, try harder, take endless action.
We can attempt to get others to change, read the books, do the courses and the personal development, follow marketing strategies, listen to podcasts, work with mentors, consultants, coaches and spiritual gurus galore.
And some of this may be very helpful but..
Until we see the 'snow' is a colourless, blank canvas (Step 1)
Which is reflecting our choice of lens, we may continue seeking to experience changes through the very lenses which filter it out!
And our experience of the snow simply can’t shift much.
And yes, if we keep scratching away at our current lenses or polishing them hard enough or have a wake up call which brings about a new choice of lens, we may experience our world differently.
But why make it hard?
When it’s so much simpler, faster, easier, enjoyable and natural to choose new goggles.
Ones which align with what we desire to see and experience.
Because not only can we then skip past the goggles with the yellow lenses... ??
We also don't have to wait.
Because our very own 'goggle shop' is open 24/7, every single day of our life.
And not only is our choice limitless.
All of the goggles are 100% free!
?? You hold all the power - don't let your mind or your circumstances lead you to believe otherwise.
