"we've always done it this way."
When your computer is slowing down and not functioning on the most effective level, it might need to take a step back, to download and update some new programs. Maybe it also it needs to get rid of a few viruses. To do this it will have to shut down for a period of time. It will be a waiting period before you can use your computer again. It will take different length of time depending on how many old programs that had to be removed, before it could do all the updating and re-loading of new programs.
When you finally turn on the computer after it has downloaded all the new programs or updated excising programs, it will sometimes feel awkward and frustrating because you can't find some of the old ways of doing things. You have to learn new ways. The old programs are not working the same way as they did before the update.
This means that you can't go back to the old way we did things on the computer before the new updates and downloads. You are forced to learn new ways of doing things.
In a way the computer has cleaned out the old to make room for the new. It also means that the new programs and updates will make your computer run more smoothly and it will be able to do things it couldn't do before. Maybe it also has more speed and capability.
Is this what is happening in the world?
The world was forced to slow down by this virus. The world was forced to take a step back. The world was forced into a period of waiting.
We couldn't do the things that we were used to do. Some people couldn't go to work. Some people had to work from home. Kids couldn't go to school. We couldn't meet our friends and family.
In other words, we couldn't do what we usually did. We were in a waiting period.
After this waiting period there will be a re-charging period and new things will be downloaded.
New ideas, new dreams, new perspectives and new opportunities.
We are being prepared to go somewhere where we have never been before. We are being prepared to accomplish new goals and dreams that we thought were impossible before.
The key is that we can't go back to doing the things the same was as we did before.
We must open our minds and our hearts for change, or the recharge is not going to work.
Are you making the most of your life?
Are you living the life of your choice, or are you living a life that someone else designed for you?
Are you pursuing your dreams, or maybe you need to dream a new dream?
Are you spending your time wisely?
Who are you spending your time with?
Are you spending time on a job that gives you purpose?
Have you outgrown some of your relationships?
Are you fulfilling your purpose?
Are you just going through the day, not excited, stuck in a job or in a relationship where you are not fulfilled?
Now is the time to make adjustments. Stay open for something new. What worked in the past, may not be good for right now and where you are going.
Don't get stuck in the old. It's time to re-focus.
Old ways can't open new door.
We must come out of this crisis with a new mindset. We must get a clear vision and we must learn to re-focus.
We must be open for new ideas. New job opportunities. New relationships and friendships. New open doors.
We must get out of our comfort zone and try new things.
We must letting go of old things and ways of doing things in order to discover new and more exciting ways.
Time to try new things.
Look for the new open doors and stop staring and hanging onto the old doors that are closing or have already closed.
It's easy to stay in the comfort zone. It's easy to get comfortable. But complacency will keep us stuck where we are right now and it will prevent us from accomplishing our dreams.
At this time we are being forced to move forward. Don't fight it. Move along instead.
Open your heart and your mind and start looking for new open doors, new opportunities, new dreams, new jobs and new friendships.
It's time for a new assignment. It's time for a new dream!!!
This is what happened to me back in 2012, when I had to go through the biggest crisis in my own life, so far. I had 3 huge losses in less than 4 months. Almost all doors closed around me and only one opened. But I took the open door because it was no use in hanging onto the shut doors. because they were not going to open again. I was also in a waiting period of about 6 months before I came up with a new vision for my life. During this time I had to let go of a lot of old things and relationships in order to make room for new ones. It' was total uncertainty and most things and people around me were new.
Was this waiting time easy? Heck NO!!! I was scared to death!!!
But I also knew that the only things I could to was to stop fighting for things to go back to they way they used to be and to move forward. I couldn't look back at my old life, because it was never ever going to be the same again.
But new ideas were born during this time. A new vision for my life was born A new business was born. New relationships were born. New opportunities were born. A new mindset was born.
Today my life is very different. I have grown a lot. I have learned many new things. Accomplished huge goals. Met new people and created new relationships. I have done many scary things. I have faced my fears and I will continue to do this.
Is it time for a new assignment in your life?
Is it time for you to create a new dream?
Is it time for new ideas?
Life is an amazing opportunity.
Don't be afraid to try new things.
