Using the Outward Mindset to Make Lasting Positive Changes

If you want to see improvements in your life, start by SEEING your current mindset and be prepared to make ADJUSTMENT. But before you can adjust anything, first understand what needs adjustment?

For example, look at the different areas of your life that obviously need improvement. In other words, identify (SEE) the areas in your life that could use some adjustment.Serving others

After SEEING the issue(s), be willing to make the proper “ADJUSTMENT.” The chances are, any part of your life that is focused “inward” will be discovered to be one of your sources of discontent. If so, the proper adjustment will be to move “outward,” thus serving the interest of others above your own.

Through the Outward Mindset, Know You are Set Free

If you want to see improvements in your life, know you don’t have to wait for others to change. You don’t have to wait for circumstances to change either. You can make the change you want to see in others right now, regardless of “others” involvement.

Basically, one of the most important moves you can make to improve your life is to make the move to become outward regardless of what anyone else does, or does not do. Turning outward toward others will improve your life and your life experience, period.

Don’t Wait for Permission to Do The Right Thing

Don’t wait… move. You can achieve a great deal on your own just by adjusting yourself. Make the move from an inward mindset to an outward mindset and you will affect everyone around you in a positive way.

What’s more, you can lead others to join you by adjusting their own mindset. At any time, you can begin to influence positive change by simply shifting your own mindset from inward to outward. You as an individual and anyone you lead will improve simply because you shifted your mindset from inward (self-centered) to outward (other’s centered).

Beginning with yourself, allow people to be responsible for their own work and their own efforts, and their own ideas. First, own yourself and own your own choices, and take responsibility for all that you do. In other words, walk the talk. Then, let others take responsibility for their own actions. Let others have ideas and make decisions and then help them own it.

When working with others and when leading others, eliminate the unnecessary distinctions that create distance between yourself and others. Be humble and be willing to associate with all others, especially those you are leading.

What a man thinks in his heart he is...

Make sure everything you are involved with is outward to the best of your ability Do your best to influence everyone in your life to be outward minded.
