With the dawn of a new year, many of us make “resolutions”. Are you one of these people? Are you looking to improve an area of your life? You need to read on and watch this video by personal development master, Tony Robbins.
So many people say they want to be the best – the best wife or husband, the best father or mother, the best friend, the best worker, the best athlete. They say they need to change in order to do so and place an immense amount of weight on “change”.
What’s better than change? Progress. Being better than you were yesterday. Seek to improve and you will indeed progress.
How do you get better? It really boils down to having such a clear, compelling vision that (as Tony says) it PULLS you toward it. Notice it’s not something pushing you toward a goal? Why? Because the power of that PULL toward the vision is stronger and longer-lasting than any push. Simply put – PULLING is stronger than PUSHING and will keep you on track toward your vision.
OK, so you have this clear, compelling vision, then what? You must RAISE YOUR STANDARDS. People are constantly talking about what they should do when in reality, these “shoulds” never get done. Your “MUSTS” get done!
With that clear, compelling vision that you have, what is it that you MUST get done to see that vision become reality? Take a close look at your daily rituals and ask yourself if they are serving you or hindering you from being pulled closer to that vision. If they’re serving you, continue with them as often as necessary. If not, develop new rituals immediately that do serve you.
In summary, many of us are looking to improve areas of our life in 2017. What specific area do you want to improve in your life and what does that area look like now? What are the rituals that have shaped the current condition of that area of your life? Write them down. What is your clear, compelling, specific vision that you have for this area? Write it down. Lastly, write down the specific rituals that will help get you there to that vision.
