We all have our routines; there’s nothing wrong with that unless we refuse to deviate in any way, even if what we’re habitually doing is not necessarily the best thing for us. Change can be scary, but staying in our comfort zone is an invitation to stagnate.
“A tiny change today brings a dramatically different tomorrow.”
Richard Bach
If we dream of doing something different, yet continue to do the same old things, nothing will change. In order to grow, we must be brave and shake things up and do something new, think new thoughts, and let go of limiting beliefs. The moment we decide to shift the pattern, previously unseen potential becomes available. Then when we make even one small adjustment, the trajectory can send us on a whole new path.
“Don’t go through life, grow through life.”
Eric Butterworth
Each day is an opportunity to enjoy the life we have while striving for even more goodness, adventure, and increased quality of life. As we continue to practice personal kaizen and make slight modifications and improvements to our routines, our lives will expand and become better than we allowed ourselves to experience earlier. When we make the most out of each day, it inevitably leads to amazing growth and personal development.
“One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.”
Abraham Maslow
