Something to consider…Do you have pet peeves? For example, in conversation with a spouse or loved one you say, if you do X-Y-Z that will upset me, or someone didn’t do as you wished? that is one of your personal rules.

Truth is our rules were not just something which one day became part of our belief system, over time they were adopted as you grew up. Remember your parents saying “you are who you your friends are.” The more time you spend with people the ideals they believe influence your beliefs, some we adopt some we discard, they become a part of out standard.

Looking at the big picture is a way to develop clarity to what you desire, setting goals along the way help measure success.

The journey to achieving a goal can present challenges along the way, it is here our rules stop us from looking at the big picture and seeking a solution. What’s wrong is always available but so is what’s right, what ever we seek there has been someone who has had a similar issue and found a solution.

Sometimes the people we hang around with influence our decisions to change direction which and impact a goal to be achieved. You might consider not spending as much time with people that don’t encourage you to stretch your beliefs. If along the way what your doing is not working and your not seeing the results you want, don’t be afraid to change directions, don’t become complacent, focus on the big picture.
