Not only will the old make for a very boring and mundane life, but your personal growth will be halted at the gates for anything that will be great and purposeful for you. The future is not written yet, however, many people do not realize how their present situation can follow them right up to the point of their deaths if they don't succumb to the "new". I know it sounds morbid, but it is a reality that we must all face.
Here's the thing, we all want something new because we all strive to be better or for things to be better. As a songwriter, producer, engineer I write new music in hopes that my new creation will bring about a new situation. That situation could be to advance our status once again to platinum records sales or open up doors for various avenues in which our music can be heard. Each year, we look for the same vision but in different ways that will result in different outcomes. We call this opportunity!
We look to depend solely on our team of artist, musicians, songwriters, producers and engineers to create the vision we see every day. If you want to glance into your personal future, I am going to make a recommendation right now. I am going to show you exactly how you can predict what you will be doing next year almost to the minute. Are you ready? Ok here it goes.
Today, January 1, 2017, ask yourself what you will be doing on June 1, 2017. Then ask yourself that if you accomplished what you need on June 1, 2017, then what will you be doing on December 31, 2017. If the answer to your question was any of the following:
- I don't know, how am I suppose to know
- I don't know what I am doing tomorrow
- I have it all mapped out in general.
If it sounds familiar then you know what I am saying is right. New Year, old you is a mindset that you have not addressed and dealt with...at all. Only 2% of people will set out to change their life as they know it and accomplish what they set out to do. Where are you in that mix?
If you haven't realized yet, I am talking about the personal development of your mind and not anything else. Wisdom is the key to a better future. You can only get wisdom through experiences you find in books, place, people or situations. And in most cases all four. This is a hardcore fact.
Don't believe me? Run a scenario in your mind on these common life experiences: Pay a bill late ( what is the result and what do you try to do the next time? ), tell someone you love (or hate) them ( what then will you gain or lose if you did this? ). The point is, with each example above there is an effect against the cause but it all educates you for another time.
If in the next time you correct yourself from the previous experience, you will have gained wisdom. Now, all you have to do is put a little thought into your action before you act and you will be wise. I will go on to say that if you repeat the same action as before, then this is called poor judgment and that poor judgment will lead into a pattern or habit so on and so forth.
How does this all tie into the future? If you have a new idea about anything, the trick is to get right on it. We all had great ideas before, but a "new you" will think it through this time around. You have learned from many times before how your new idea just sat and sat until you totally forgot about it and that idea was no more.
You can plant checkpoints throughout your entire thought process. I said before sometimes we have the effect against the cause, a thought process will allow you to have cause that will net you the desired effect if done properly. You don't have to be where you were many years ago. You don't have to be where you are now.
If you develop your mind and how it processes new things, your change will be realized. Allow yourself to experience as many things, people, places, situations (good ones of course) as possible. It will only bring about more wisdom and you can use that wisdom to create a true New Year, New You!!!
Take the risk and go for it!!!
