You are where you are right now in your life because of the choices you have made and the actions you have taken. If you want to change your life, remember that change starts with you. - Jeffrey Keller

Every single choice we make determines our future. Every thought we are thinking propels us happily forward or cripples our life experience. We can jumpstart any change we want to make by focusing on what is going on right now in the present.

Where we have the most power is NOW. Not in a little while. Definitely not in the past. Now is the pivot point in your life where literally everything can change.

Our thoughts and choices affect our perspective and attitude. Look closely at your thoughts. What story am I telling myself right now? Is it one of hope or one of pessimism? Am I complaining or enjoying what is happening around me? How can I change my story for the better?

As we work on our self-talk (our story), a dramatic shift can occur which is the fulcrum for permanent change. Start observing what you think and what you say to yourself and others. You’ll begin to notice patterns of negative thought. Begin to modify aspects of those thought patterns. It’s important to change them slowly at first. If your new story is not believable it will not help you. Change it only slightly (to the better of course) so that it is still believable. From this new vantage point, then you can move on to the next level of change.

Have a great day!
