4. Am I looking for What's Right OR Am I looking for What's Wrong?
Oooh this is a really good one!! Because we are trained almost from birth to notice what is wrong in a certain situation. But when we look for what's wrong in a situation or a relationship, we feel bad, resigned and disappointed. Looking for what's wrong makes us feel like shit! We're looking for all the ways in which things "should not be"... instead of accepting things for how they are. But when we look for what's wrong, perhaps the wrongness does not lie out there... but rather within ourselves, within the lenses through which we look at the world!
Looking for what is right takes practice, but when we do it, we feel good, strong and worthy. And all it takes is a shift in perception... Instead of looking for what is wrong and blaming others... what if we refocus and look for what is right!? What is right about this person or this situation? What do I love about this person... what do I appreciate about this person?? How could this situation be a great blessing for me today!? Who knows what might show up for us?? And all it takes is a shift in our way of thinking, a shift in our conversation... our internal conversation... A shift from looking for what is wrong to looking for what is right... Might make all the difference in the world!! And for me, this is an easy one to remember... Now... to put it into practice!
