Taking a New Perspective

The other day a person asked me to help them help another person to get their keys out of their locked car. Afterwards I started thinking about perspective.

Have you ever done that, locked your keys in your car? Most newer cars have alarms, will not lock it or have some type of device in them that will not let you leave the keys inside. Still in the olden days I have done it plenty of times. I would look inside to see if I could see them. are they in the ignition , on the passenger seat, on the dash, or in the floor. I mean I would do all this thinking if they can’t be seen by me then I don’t have to worry about them until later. Because others will not see them either. I would say to myself let me check my pockets again. Now just because I could not see them didn’t mean that they were not in there right? Also, it did not mean that just because I couldn’t get in the one door or window , that I couldn’t get in another. It was all a matter of perspective.

We Can Change Our Perspective

When we play to win there will be situations that we will face. We must be willing to take a new perspective. We must be willing to look at things from a new position. When we look at situations from the same place, we will never have the opportunities to grow into a new awareness. That would bring answers that we would have never found. We must be willing to ask others for advice, ask for help, stop and think instead of just reacting as we always have done before. Be willing to step outside of the problem asking ourselves questions solutions based. Don’t be focusing on what is wrong with this, but what possibilities are in front of us.

Change your perspective for the next 10 days, then think about it. If nothing else it will give you a bit more understanding of others around you. Maybe it will even help you to see how to reach others. It could help you to remove the chains that have you stuck in one place for so long. Maybe just by taking a different view you will find a different You.
