Mental Preparation for Career and Life Change

When you ask a full room of people if they would like a change, most of the room would boom with a resounding yes. However, once you ask them how many of them are willing to change, starting immediately, the response will be somewhat less decisive. Unfortunately, this is a practice that leads to stagnation, seeing as how every real change comes from within, from your own mindset. The issue of motivation, resolution, organization, and attitude are all a direct result of your mental preparation. When used efficiently, these can lead to a significant shift in your lifestyle. Here are several tips to help utilize this idea to the fullest.

1.      Don’t dismiss a monetary incentive

There is a common misconception in the world of life coaches and spiritual guru’s that the money is somehow a bad thing or thatmaterialistically motivated decisions are never positive ones. Nevertheless, money is but a tool and blaming money for your bad decisions is like blaming a hammer for the fact that the photo on the wall is crooked. Keep in mind that money can give you a greater sense of independence, freedom, and accomplishment. Apart from this, a heftier paycheck often goes hand-in-hand with greater responsibility, often even with a position of power. For this reason alone, dismissing a monetary incentive from your decision-making process is never a good idea.

2.      Step outside of your cage

The main reason why people refuse to change their status quo is out of the fear of leaving their comfort zone. Sure, it may feel like a cage sometimes but better stay in a cage you know than head out into the unknown dangers of the open sky, right? Sadly, this is usually not the case. The greatest problem is that sometimes in order to pursue your passion, you don’t only have to change towns but continents. How massive this problem appears, however, mostly depends on your mindset. Technical issues regarding the move can easily be handled by veteranimmigration lawyers but the final decision needs to be made by you alone. Moreover, you need to believe with 100 percent reliability that you’ve made the right choice.

3.      The definition of insanity

One of the most compelling definitions of insanity is that it is a process of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting for things to change. Needless to say, there is only one way to step out of this vicious cycle and that is to muster strength and courage to step out of it. Time may be a powerful force but it is highly unlikely that it will make you fall in love with a job that you loathe from day one. You must always keep in mind that the universe doesn’t owe you anything and that you deserve only those rewards you’re not afraid to reach out for. Still, a revolution of any kind requires courage and contrary to the popular belief, this isn’t something you’re born with, it’s something you are supposed to develop on your own.

4.      You are not alone

While this may seem like a cliché statement, it is a truth that a lot of people fail to acknowledge when found at a crossroad in their lives. The dilemma you’re now having is the same one that so many people had before you. Luckily, in the age of the internet, our world is hyper-connected like never before. Therefore, it is much easier to find stories, confessions, and tips from people who had similar previous experiences. Apart from this, you would be surprised just how people close to you can be understanding, even if the situations they definitely can’t relate to. Therefore, don’t be hesitant to ask for advice when you need one.

5.      Take some time

Finally, you need to shake off an illusion that time is somehow working against you. The time is not the enemy, procrastination is. You need to understand that rushing because you believe that you have to fight against a clock may be as bad as not acting at all. So, as soon as you convince yourself that you are eventually going to take the right action, you can feel free to take some time in order to get ready for all that follows. As simple as this may seem, this is the part that most of the people get wrong.

In conclusion

At the end of the day, you should never be too afraid to reach for the stars, after all, if you don’t improve your life, no one else will. This is your responsibility and yours alone. A lot of people fear the consequences of their actions but they often forget that inaction has consequences, as well. When observed from this perspective, you really have nothing to lose and everything to gain. This notion alone should be enough to encourage you to take any risk if the reward is compelling enough.

My Rendezvous With Life

The treacherous waters of existence hail in their stride,As the beauty of sailing against the winds uproars in its ride.Benevolence in its yonder stirs the mirth of the true,Navigating the turbulent waves, death and I had a rendezvous.

I sought the beauty of the light that was unseen,In the depths of my muse, I found my world within.Life in its flair, trudged me into the emblems of the dark,The dreams that perspired in the seed embraced their death,As it was time for a new quest to embark.

I Breathe In The Sauntering Air That Collapses My Being

I Breathe In The Sauntering Air That Collapses My Being

I breathe in the sauntering air that collapses my being,I breathe through the crevices of my existence unseen.Uncertainty in its yonder strikes in bolt on the scars that nobody sees,Redemption that loves, redemption that is free, find me in the depths of my poetry.

Tales of lust ridden in smeared touches that belie,Entreated with envy, the visions of victory lie.To be or not to be in a question that yet lies,For I yearn for a world where fond passion never dies.

Enclasped in the cage of the deemed duty,Bounded in her vows, she forgot she was a thing of beauty.In a realm we live, where amour in its truth fails to stand tall,She, tired of her existence, submerges herself into the beauty that her dreams enthrall.

Chaos in its uproar hails in its darkness
