Everything starts with your perspective. So, if you want to change your life, start with chaining your perspective.
How you see the world, and how you interpret different situations, creates your unique perception. This will determine your decisions, actions, and reactions (and you do have some control over this).
So, if you want to be something, you have to have the right mindset to get there. You have to get into the right frame of mind so you can be focused, motivated, disciplined, accountable, driven, committed, and ultimately, successful.

Theodore Roosevelt once said: “Believe you can, and you’re halfway there”. And he hit the nail right on the head. Your beliefs are powerful things! They can steer you in the direction of your choice.
So, when you’ve decided it’s time for a change, and you are ready to achieve a goal, now what?
Now, it’s time to figure out what you really want, why you want it, what you are willing to do for it, and then stay positive. Let’s look at these steps in more detail:

For example, you might have someone who says: “Okay, what I want is a promotion. I want to be the big boss”. Now, let’s say we asked that person, “Why do you want a promotion?” They might respond with, “I want financial security for my family.” Now, that is gold.
What that person really wants, is financial security and to be a good provider. They want to make sure that their family has everything they need. The promotion and the boss stuff, that’s just fluff.
