Are you limiting yourself?
Sept 16 - Are you limiting yourself? Have you recently discounted a potential option or direction you could go because you made the assumption that it was not a good one? Have you not considered a suggestion someone has made to you because you
simply didn't think it would work or was viable? Are you keeping too much about what you are doing to yourself, not sharing with anyone? It is important not be too hasty in jumping to your own conclusion when being presented with options, opportunities or alternatives. Your greatest power towards reaching your ultimate goals and desires is in being completely open to where various options and paths may lead. If you don't honor yourself by gaining more insight and understanding about each
possibility, you may actually be pushing your efforts backwards without even realizing this is what you are doing. Don't allow assumptions to cloud your vision. Being open to possibilities means being open to other people and their possibilities.
Take an MM&I Moment to reawaken your curiosity to options that may have been presented to you over the past week or month that you had dismissed without attempting to better understand or explore further. What were the assumptions you made? What were your reasons you did not consider it to
be viable? Were they validated reasons or only supposition? Consider people you could reach out to who could lead you to insights, information, or clarity. Who has already accomplished what you desire? Who has perspective you value? Who has connections or resources you could leverage? Based on your answers to these questions, are any of these options worth exploring further after all. If so, then proceed to gain insight, clarity, and understanding and you may just be pleasantly surprised
at where the exploration leads you.
