Do you follow rules that no longer matter?
Last year I set a goal for myself to act every day- and the way I did that was by daily making a little video and posting it.
And I did it. Yay!
But the interesting thing was, somewhere along the way I disconnected from the actual outcome.
I set myself the ‘rule’ that I had to post something every day. And so I stuck to that rule religiously.
But in so doing, I lost sight of what I really wanted to be doing: creating something of value that I loved and that other people could love to.
So instead of noticing that and shifting my approach, I stuck to the rule.
So I’m very mindful now of getting rid of that which no longer serves me.
Am I following this rule because I’m too stubborn to change?
Or is it still taking me where I want to go?
Don’t continue to do something just because you said you would…
Each day you learn more and get closer to knowing what it actually is that you want.
And your previous decisions and commitments may not serve the updated picture.
Don’t be stubborn. Be flexible.
