Our perspective is our world, but it can also limit what we see.
We base decisions from our perspective. We choose how we interact with others based on our perspective. The quality of our relationships can be dictated by our perspective. And what we achieve in our lives is often determined by our perspective.
Our perspective and our willingness to change it, can be the key to making positive change in our lives. When we have the courage to look at our perspective, question it and open ourselves to other perspectives, that’s when we see things we didn’t see before and learn about possibilities we never knew about.
So if you’re feeling stuck, frustrated or just can’t see the path ahead, try looking at your perspective and inquire if there’s another way of looking at things.

Sometimes when you’re amidst a very large complex challenge and you’re feeling overwhelmed, the best thing to do is to break it down into bite size chunks of action steps that you could do to start to solve the problem and overcome the challenge you’re in.
And then, take one small step forward. Because overcoming our challenges isn’t about solving it all in one go, it’s about slowly and strategically finding our way through, one step at a time, and always moving forward.

Using courage as a platform to stand, our actions come from our deep rooted values and beliefs, something anchored inside of ourselves, instead of from fear, which is based on things outside of ourselves.
Living from fear closes us in from the past and future events that haven’t happened yet (and may never happen). Courage opens us up to unknown possibilities that are uncovered when we’re strong enough to stand from this place.

As the year draws to a close, we often reflect on it, sometimes positively and sometimes negatively. We can be hard on ourselves about what we achieved and what we didn’t.
But I bet you, if you take a closer look, you’ll be surprised just how much you did achieve, what challenges you were able to overcome and how much you’ve grown.
And you might have to be gentle on yourself and have a more compassionate approach to see these things. But they’ll be there, and this, is a more productive and positive use of reflection.

Sometimes all that someone needs is for you to listen to them. Not just hear them, but really listen, listen to understand and listen to provide empathy and compassion.
They don’t need you to solve their problem, just listen and provide a space for them to articulate their thoughts. Because most of the time, through this, they’ll end up solving their own problem anyway.
