How to Change Your Mindset

Have you ever had a goal you could not reach? You start off strong, only to find yourself procrastinating and unmotivated. You want to go for the “gusto” only to find your “gusto” has already come and gone. You want to run the race, but you realize you never even got to the starting gate. How do some people “make things happen” while others sit around and wonder “why things are not happening.” The difference….MINDSET.

Each person can set and achieve big goals, but for some… it seems harder to accomplish. Changing your mindset can make the difference.

We all get in a pattern of saying and doing the same thing over and over. Often thinking that our way is the right way…possibly the only way. We often fix our minds on those things that have been ingrained in our thoughts. Many people come from environments in which they have been told, by various people in their life, they will not amount too much or perhaps from situations in which they assume they “can never” do enough… Believing lies that are not true can limit you from moving forward. Remaining in the same pattern of thinking, limits your ability to see outside of the box and discover new possibilities.

Mindset is just that….”all in your head”. The good news is, you have the ability to change it, if you want!

Steps in changing your mindset

1. Adjust your thinking.

2. Turn off your inner critic! Don’t allow what others have said about you or have done to you, limit your thoughts or hinder your progress.

3. Understand the “What” and figure out your “Why”.

4. Set small SMART achievable goals. When you feel like you can never move forward, setting smaller daily goals gives you the confidence to build up to larger goals.
