Day Seventeen: Shift Your Perspective

“Thinking brand new thoughts that you’ve never thought before is far more conducive to creating big life changes, than thinking different varieties of the same old thoughts.”

Think about it,
The Universe

Change your routine. Disrupt a pattern. Think new thoughts.

I was walking my daughter’s dog one morning when I noticed a habit I had developed. Immy likes to walk on the patches of grass to my right and my gaze naturally falls to the right side to see what she is smelling and making sure she “does her business” on the walk.

I decided to change the pattern and turn my attention to the left side of the sidewalk. As soon as I did that, I noticed a bright orange flower blooming. My whole body responded with a quick inhale, almost a gasp, for air. It was so beautiful. Until that moment, I didn’t know that this native California plant was a flowering plant.
