Do a Headstand for a Fresh Perspective





As long as we are alive there will be problems, difficulties or challenges. Often, it is not the size of the problem that is the real problem but rather the size of the person in the tight spot.

By and large, the size of the problem is fixed or static. We may be a level 3 person today, but if we have a growth mentality (as opposed to a fixed mentality), we can grow and develop into a level 4 person with the capacity to handle a level 4 problem.

A problem is not the end of the world in and of itself. Put things into perspective, think bigger and wider the next time you encounter a seemingly insurmountable mountain. Train yourself and get acclimatised for your Mount Everest. Get all the help you can from those who have scaled it and learn as much as you can from them.

By the by, you would be able to look back and see that that many of your problems were like storms in a teacup as you become a seasoned ship captain on the inside of you. Never stop learning and growing; stay hungry and move forward to achieve a more accomplished life of purpose and fulfillment.

Do a headstand, so to speak, and if need be, and be reminded that a fresh perspective would open up new vistas of possibilities for you to become a conqueror and winner in life. There is a champion on the inside of you with unfolding genius and potential.
