Change Your Perspective Change Your World
Once upon a time, Mike and I were standing in the kitchen of his mother's camp in Maine. He mentioned the time of day and I couldn't understand how he knew what time it was since he wasn't wearing a watch. Mike, who is several inches taller than I am, lifted me up to his vantage point. Lo! there was the clock on the wall in full sight. Amazing the difference that a few inches in height will make to one's point of view. It changed my world – for the few moments until he set me back down on the floor.
A couple of days ago we posted a quote by Deepak Chopra: "When we touch a new level of consciousness, a new world is created." This is another way of saying if we change our perspective, we change our world. If you learn something new, your perceptions will change and so will your world. If you change your focus to look in a new direction or look at something old from a different direction, you'll also expand your awareness.
If you are willing to take a step away from your current position, you'll find that new opportunities open up that you didn't realize existed.
