10 Things I Know About ... Shifting your perspective

10. Embrace change. It's a whole lot better than fighting it.

9. Sometimes you have to let go. Letting things go is a sign of strength, not weakness. If you think back to when someone hurt you and your heart races and blood pressure rises, let it go.

8. Discomfort is worth the risk. Going outside your comfort zone opens up all kinds of possibilities. There's a whole big world out there. Try that belly dancing class or go skydiving.

7. How you get there doesn't matter. Just because someone carries out a task differently than you would doesn't mean it's wrong. If you both end up with the same result, it doesn't matter how you got there.

6. Focus on 'can' rather than 'can't.' We all have gifts and talents. Concentrate on those rather than on your weaknesses. You gain confidence, feel better and can serve others.

5. Separate work from the rest of 'you.' Creating boundaries is necessary in order to maintain a healthy life balance. Sometimes we have to say “no” to serve our highest good.

4. Be a solo act on occasion. Pushing yourself to go to that event alone will bring you to a new level. You'll stretch yourself and possibly connect with someone who can change your life.

3. Slow and steady wins the race — really! Taking small steps along the way toward a goal creates a winning strategy to achieve it.

2. Live without guilt. Watch that sitcom, have a couch day, read a book. Even though there are chores to be done, you deserve to just be.

1. Engage in a random act of kindness. Someone out there needs what you have. A smile or a kind word is a free token of love you can share anytime. You never know who is in desperate need of a little hope.
