Bring A New Outlook And Re-Vitalize An Old Situation

By Bob Proctor

There is a season in every person's life that he will outgrow certain areas in his life and desire anew. Though contentment is virtuous, dissatisfaction at what is easily attainable is a good thing as well. It makes you grow and want to change your life to have more.

Take a good look in your life. What area causes frustration and discontent inside you? For most people it is their jobs and the daily grind of it. If you want quality of life, you need to deal with your career goals as it directly relates to your personal life as well.

What do I mean? Not only does your job provide you with the money to buy the things you need; the right career goals will give you fulfillment and purpose in life. Too often we think too little of our professions as only what we need to do to survive- if we think like this we are missing out on enjoying quality of life beyond what we expect.

Ponder for a moment about certain areas in your life that needs a face lift. List down all the associations you have with that particular area. What you have is the paradigms that dictate your thoughts, feelings and behavior that you may not even know you are operating on.

Take for instance the profession you are in right now. Do you feel joy when you talk about work or are you dreading waking up and going to the office? If it is the latter, then it is high time you think about having a career change. Find a job that you actually like so you will be inspired to produce excellent work.

Bear in mind that you need to determine the root of your dissatisfaction before you think of a career change. Otherwise, you are only transferring your frustrations to the next job you will be in. Is there a negative association or experience that has tainted the view you have of work? If this is all it is, then you can resolve these issues. You might actually enjoy the career you're in now and you won't even need to find a job anymore.

Now we need to hold up our profession in a positive light. If the career you have brings out your full potential and makes you happy, then work will not seem like work at all. You will do more and consequently reap the rewards-money and recognition for a job well done.

You really don't need to look everywhere to change your life. The answer resides within you. You can make something beautiful out of any old situations that have been detrimental to your growth. Have a good attitude, thing good thoughts and begin to expect the best-you have the power to create the reality you so desire.
