Our lives are filled with possibilities and yet we often forget that nothing is set in stone. We can make changes to areas of our life that just don’t work anymore. In this episode, Rob discusses the kinds of changes that people who want a better life have made.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

  • The newness of Spring
  • Nothing is set in stone
  • We act as if things are unchangeable
  • From here on, everything is up for grabs
  • Relationships, work, religion, lifestyle can all be changed
  • Stop acting like you don’t have a choice

  • You have options.
  • Yes, perseverance is good but…
  • Don’t keep waiting on the dance floor alone.

HOW TO USE THIS IN YOUR LIFE

  2. Think about areas like work, love, friendships, activities, lifestyle, beliefs, and so on.
  3. Identify any area that isn’t working for you anymore.
  4. Don’t spend too much time analyzing it.
  5. Instead, try to imagine what you do want instead.
  6. Compare that to what you’re currently experiencing.
  7. If there’s a significant enough gap, start to deconstruct your notions about that area.
  8. Strip away all the parts you don’t want.
  9. Give yourself permission to change it.
