You’re only one decision away from a totally different life. Making a positive, life-changing decision requires three steps for success: 1. Awareness When we’re unhappy, it can often feel like there’s no way out, but you always have options. The first step in making a #choice is the #awareness that you have one. At this stage, it’s not about editing yourself on what’s possible; it’s about being mindful that change starts with you and your attitude. (Note: choosing not to make a change is also a choice; if you’re not changing it, you’re choosing it.) 2. Attention with Intention Once you’ve realized that change is an internal job, consider those things within your control and how they impact—for better or worse—what you want. Bring your #attention to your #intention , and ask yourself what’s the one thing you can do right now to bring you closer to your #goals . This need not be a grandiose, sweeping gesture; the biggest change starts with a small step in a new direction. 3. Action This last step may seem obvious, but far too often, we fail to act even when we know that making a change is in our best interest. Nothing changes if nothing changes. And action begets more action, giving us the much-needed momentum to keep going, no matter how slowly we start. #leadership #career
