Are you sitting back waiting for things to be different in 2021?
I understand if you are. 2020 brought so many things that swept us up with crazy momentum outside of our control.
So what happens?
Sometimes we get trapped in a passive mode of waiting for things to be better and feeling resentful when they are not. This usually happens when we have given up our power to someone/something else.
You’ll know if you’re here because you will feel like a passenger on a train with no idea where its going and waiting to be told when and where to get off. If you get off in the wrong location, you may feel frustrated and helpless, waiting to be told when to get back on.
We are only 1 month down in 2021 and starting the year with that kind of energy can be a bit debilitating. Waiting for things to be different is a path of least resistance. We ‘spin our wheels’, take the easy option of no decision/action which means we cant be blamed and are not at fault if things don’t go the way we want.
So what can I do?
If you don’t want to start the year like that, ask yourself the following question for these domains of your life – your work; your relationships/family; your health; your finances.
What simple action could I take that would create a positive shift for me?
How can I make sure it happens?
The following actions are listed in ascending order (from least to most effective):
- Think about it
- Write it down
- Talk about it with someone else
- Commit to doing it publicly
- Do it
Time to take back your power and create the change you want. The view is much better from the driver’s seat.
