Sometimes a change in perspective changes everything. Take this morning for example. Before the day even started, I felt overwhelmed with a never-ending To Do list. But rather than dig right into it, I putzed. I played games. I called a friend. I checked email. I read the news online. I complained to myself. I rechecked email.
Then it dawned on me ... wrong approach.
The torture of the tasks was killing me. I needed to look at my situation differently. At that moment, a question popped into my head:
What can I create today?
Mmmm. That was definitely a more appealing thought. Suddenly that proposal I needed to get done became a creative endeavor. I saw the fun in creating a new presentation to engage potential partners in a new business opportunity.
Ideas were flowing. Good ideas. Ones that would lead to the results I wanted.
The mundane tasks were still there, but I saw them in a new light. I simply needed to get them done as fast as I could to free up time for the work I liked doing.
... which right now happens to be sharing my thoughts with you.
So let me ask you this -- what can you create today?
