Shedding & Transforming By Succession
Like the caterpillar that had to shed many layers before becoming a ? we too must #shed thoughts and attitudes that no longer serve us in relationship, business, and in life in order to transform into all we were created to be.
If we want to fly, we must adjust our thinking.
If we do not adjust, we will remain caterpillars.
…From my INBOX this morning, this is the 3rd time since Friday the gist of this message came to me.
The first one came when I met with Mia, a HS student who interviewed me about having my own business as a Personal Stylist.
“When something bad happens with a client or a business situation,
does it turn into a bad day?”
“When something bad happens with a client or a business situation, does it turn into a bad day?”
I thought that was an interesting question, but I was well-pleased by it. I told her that “bad days” only happen if you allow a challenge to have that kind of emotional control over you. The key to responding and managing an unpleasant client or business situation lies in the quality of your thinking and #mindset. Instead of looking at a situation as “bad” or having failure attached to it, look for the opportunity to learn, create a positive outcome, and pivot for success.
Research shows that we operate out of our belief system so I told her it’s imperative that we challenge our beliefs about (any) situation and then #choose to be positive with how we decide to move forward. Bad days (the compound effect of allowing a challenge(s) to negatively affect the totality of our day) only happen if we don’t manage the quality of our thoughts, thus responses.
TRUTH #1 “You can’t always choose your season in life,
but you can always choose your response.”
“You can’t always choose your season in life, but you can always choose your response.”
It was yesterday at church that I heard this for my fill-in-the-blank program and it triggered my memory back to my time with Mia just a few days before.We “get to” choose our response.
Now, just one day later I get Zig Ziglar in my INBOX.
Last year life in 2016, life lessons of the same topic began coming to me in a quick series through succession. This is to get my attention in a noisy world and often I am compelled to share forward, as in today.
Life lessons from a butterfly, enjoy! XO
