Change Your Channel

Through the years of educating myself in the self development arena, I have become more aware of so many new and exciting techniques to get me to a better place. If you are like me and want to improve your life in every aspect which includes spiritual, financial and health, then you must think outside the box. You must break out of that mindset that you have been stuck in for your whole life.

I think the first thing that one has to become aware of is that they do set limitations on themselves. Please understand that it is really not your fault because you were born into a certain situation and you become conditioned to that environment. You live in this place in your mind and don't know that you can actually live in a different place if you only changed your thoughts.

Let's take the analogy of watching t.v. on the same channel all day long. If you just watched one channel every day then you would be conditioned to the content of that channel. Even though there are hundreds of other channels out there you would never know about them if you just focused on one channel. That is extremely limiting yourself to a very small world.

If you had the determination to try something new and change that channel your world would be infinitely broader. Imagine the possibilities in finding new channels and expanding your comfort zone in order to grow. Remember, you can only grow when you make the decision to get out of that comfort zone and challenge yourself for a higher calling. Watching the same channel over and over again is not going to get you to that place.

I hope this analogy brings some awareness to you so you can at least think about what channel you are currently stuck on. Break out of this thinking and begin to expand your thoughts to a greater good. Be honest with yourself and tell yourself where you want to be. How do you want your life to look like. Forget about your current circumstances and dream of the life you want. Then and only then will you be able have the why to change your channel. It is a simple concept to understand, but a difficult one to accomplish if you you are stuck on one channel.
