(25-365) Sense of direction...

I started this blog with the promise to write every day about my experiences regarding the law of attraction.
For the last three days or so, I haven't written anything.  I guess I was amiss with the whole thing or had the feeling I wasn't going anywhere with it, until today.

This morning I heard the famous speaker Anthony Robbins talk about how simple adjustments, tiny steps, or very small changes to our personality, can completly change the direction of our entire lives.

It is a simple, yet very powerful lesson.  Our lives follow a pattern,  the result of our daily actions, which in turn are the result of our thoughts.   Changing how we think will cause the direction of our lives to change.

I've heard that we all want the big changes in our lives, and that we don't always pay attention to the small changes that can make the big changes take place.   Having said that,  what small changes can I make?

Calling people by their actual names.  It's a bad habit of mine not to use people's names when I get to know them, I guess because my mind thinks that by doing so is a sign of actually being close to the person.  However, people love the sound of their names more than anything else.  Using it in conversations is  the smart thing to do  always.

Thinking before speaking.   With this I mean making sure that I sound clear every time I say something, keeping a close check to my feelings.  The image that we project to the world is what determines how people perceive us, and their perception is who we ultimately are.  What everyone thinks  we are at any given time is what we are, regardless of what we think of ourselves to be.

Communicating with my loved ones.  Once I heard that most of our relationships live only in memory.  When we are not in communication with someone for a long time we are not relating with that person, period.    Regardless of what we are in blood,  the actual relationship exists only in our memory.  It is when we take the time to be with people what makes the relationship with them real.  Keep this in mind.

This list will continue in further blogs,  but I think you get the sense of what I am trying to get at.  The biggest changes in our lives take place as a result of the small changes that we make on a daily basis.

Thanks for reading.
