Sometimes we are faced with opportunities and we just don’t know what to do. Doubt and negativity can creep in so very easily. Taking a risk often opens ideas and doors that you would have not thought possible. Audrey Hepburn is known for many a wonderful quote which speak volumes to us. Today, I am taking her quote “Nothing is Impossible, the word itself says I’m Possible” to heart. With just a little change of wording in the following comments, her words of wisdom can shift your perspective. When considering an opportunity try to say and feel “Why not” and take the risk.
Let’s try a little game.
First, read the following statements
But I’m busy.
But I’m broke.
But I have kids.
But I already exercise.
But my circumstances are different.
But I’ve failed before.
But I’m not in shape.
But I’m from a small town.
But I don’t have many friends.
But I am introverted.
But I work too many long hours.
But I have student loans.
But I don’t know enough.
But I have credit card debt.
But I’m fearful.
But I lack self-confidence.
But I am tired, depressed, anxious, etc.
NOW……What if you said BECAUSE instead of BUT
What if you turned EXCUSES into REASONS to FUEL your actions.
Reread this with BECAUSE instead of BUT… and see how different it feels.
LOVE this, because the feeling seems light and in no way negative. A far easier way to deal with the way you think through possibilities and decisions.
