My oh my, how far we have come since the words ‘one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind’ were broadcast around the world on the occasion of the first landing on the moon!
Indeed, given the somewhat parlous state of the world across a broad range of issues, one wonders whether in fact we have made any progress at all since those glorious times.
We are now very good at war, we all know how to spend more than we earn [ ask any politician from any 'developed' country], and diseases that were once thought under control are now manifesting all over again.
Our so called egalitarian society is less so today than a couple of decades ago. Real poverty exists in noticeable numbers.
All of this ‘rant’ is relevant to our own individual world view. Whilst these conditions are reality, we, as success oriented people do not have to buy into any kind of hoplessness or helplessness any time soon – unless of course we want to!
Hence my reference to ‘one small step’.
In order to move away from any unwanted state and toward something more desirable, firstly you must evaluate where you are at right now and what is you do want that either is not present in your life right now or that you want to improve things for the better.
Too often that which you desire is looked upon as unrealistic or that you really can’t be bothered and so the status quo remains. Here at Life Coach Auckland we might ask, ‘well, do you want it or not?’ And if you haven’t got it – ‘why not’. The answers to these questions can be very enlightening.
If this ‘thing’ is in fact something you do want, then I suggest you employ the principle of ‘one small step’. It’s fascinating how much closer you can get to your desired outcome with just a few steps, and then a few more.
Confuscious is oft quoted thus: ‘A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.’
Often the help of someone like a life coach can help you get the clarity you need to at least create a plan of action, and then you are on your way.
