New Possibilities
Ralph Marston
A new year is here. It's
a great opportunity to re-examine your
assumptions, and to get rid of the ones that no longer make any
sense.
Assumptions can be very useful because they free you from having to
think through every little detail. Assumptions are a practical
way to
make positive use of your extensive past experience.
Remember, though, that change is a constant part of life. People
change, conditions change, the world changes, and all those changes can
quickly make your assumptions obsolete.
Outdated assumptions can keep you stuck when there's really no reason
for you to be stuck. Outdated assumptions can prevent you from
connecting with good and valuable things that are easily within your
reach.
As you go through each day, make note of the assumptions you rely
upon.
Select a few of those assumptions and seriously challenge them.
You'll find limitations you thought you had that are no longer there,
and opportunities you never knew about that are now open to you.
As the
new year begins, free yourself from outdated assumptions, and you'll
find all sorts of new possibilities popping into view.
