What's Your New Look For 2009?

"When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change"- Wayne Dyer

Another way of framing this quote is that "the way we look at an issue, IS the issue".

This month I invite you to identify something in your life that you perceive as an issue. Then reframe this issue and see if you can view it with fresh and more compassionate eyes that take into consideration your PROCESS, and not only your GOAL or destination.

For example, if you have set a goal to earn more money in your business and you are not there yet, how about looking at the situation from a process oriented perspective (rather than a goal perspective). In other words, a process oriented approach, takes into account your growth and learning (which is why we are here on this earth -to grow and learn). Ask yourself what you are learning in the process.

In the above case, you may be learning about patience, or about the need to acquire another skill set, or about the importance of working with a team to create more effective results. Then identify one creative action step you will take to set your goal in action (and into the realm of process).

Let me recap:
1. Identify your (perceived) issue.
2. Reframe your issue (ask yourself: "What is my opportunity for learning/growing here?)
3. Take one action step (or more) based on what you identified above.

May 2009 bless you with much learning, growth, abundance, joy and inspiration (...and many more heartfelt goodies).

With Love and Lightness,

Tal
