The Definition of Insanity
Have you ever heard ‘ the definition of insanity is doing the same thing every day and expecting a different result?’
I love this quote and often use it when working with my Life Coaching and Confidence Coaching clients!
Where are you living this quote?
Think about your life. Where do you keep complaining about the same thing, people or situations yet do nothing about it? Are you unhappy with your career, relationships, self confidence or finances but keep on thinking the same old thoughts or doing the same old actions every day? If so, the chances are you just keep repeating the same old pattern and creating the same old experiences year after year and nothing changes!
Most of us wish things could be better or different in our lives but do nothing about it. Remember, our thoughts and feelings create our life so if you want our life to be different, then we need to consciously change our thoughts and feelings. It really is that simple!
Your Life is Like a Photocopier
If we were take you, your thoughts, beliefs and feelings and put them through a photocopier, we would just get a copy of these in the out tray. Well this is how life works! Whatever you put in the photocopier about yourself and life, you will simply get a copy of!
For example, if y0u are always worrying about money, you will just get a copy of this in life – more reasons to worry about money!
If you are always telling yourself you have no confidence, guess what – the photocopier will copy this and you will just find yourself having low confidence.
If you keep telling yourself that you can’t get the job that you want – the photocopier will just keep creating the feeling that you can’t get the job that you want!
Focus on what you want – not what you don’t want!
If you want to start experiencing what you want in your life, you need to start changing what you are putting in the photocopier. This starts with focussing on what you do want – not what you don’ t want!
