When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change
As
the title of this blog goes, it says, if you change the way you look at things,
the things you look at change. So let's look into this. If you change the way
you look at things, the things you look at change. Quite interesting, isn't it?
Interesting thought, but it's not just a fancy way of saying words. Let me give
you an example.
Imagine this scenario, imagine in my house, electricity
disappears. So there's no electricity, is pitch black, it's dark, it's night-time,
I can't see anything. So I grabbed my car keys and I'm heading out of my house
and somewhere inside my house, I dropped the keys. I dropped the keys and of
course, I start looking for these keys on the floor everywhere but obviously
it's pitch black, so I can't see anything and I'm looking for this keys and then
I looked through the window and I see there's a lamppost outside, and it's
light, and I’m thinking, “Well, why am I here looking in this darkness, if I
can go outside and look where it's light.”
So I go outside and I start looking for
the keys under the lamppost because it's bright there and my neighbor comes
out and says, “Hey, Gediminas, what’s happening?” And I go, “Well, I lost my
keys, I'm looking for my keys.” So my neighbor comes in as well starting helping
me looking for the keys and after some time, the neighbor says, “Well, where did
you drop the keys?” And I go, “Well, I dropped the keys inside the house, but
it's dark in there, so I'm looking here because it's bright here.”
Now,
it may sound funny, this analogy, but how many times you or somebody you know
have something broken inside, but trying to fix it by looking for things
outside or have some challenges inside, but trying to fix it by looking for
things outside, you know what I mean? So the idea that the things, if you
change the way you look at things, the things you look at change, it's
basically, the whole premise is that you control how you see the world and if
you see the world differently, the world changes. I love a story by Zig Ziegler
when he had a lady that come to his seminar and she goes, “I hate my job,
everybody is bad. My job is horrible is this and that.”
She's in
tears and Ziegler says, “Okay, get up, I can help you.” He goes, “Get a get a
pen and paper.” So she gets a pen and paper and he says, “Write down 50 things
you love about your job?” And she goes, “What? Did you not hear what I just
told you? I hate my job.” And she goes, “Yeah, yeah.” But he goes, “Do they pay
you there? Or do you work there for free?” “Well they pay me?” And he goes, “Well,
do you like being paid?” “I like being paid.” “Well, that's one.”
So anyway, to
cut long story short, she ends up writing out 50 things she actually likes
about her job. And then Ziegler tells her to read that list every morning and
every evening, every morning and evening, 50 thing she likes about her job.
Well, Zig Ziegler a couple of months later comes back to the same town to do
another seminar and this lady comes, she's happy, she's beaming, she's sitting
at the first front row and she can't wait to speak to Zig Ziegler after
seminar. Surely, she approaches Zig Ziegler and she goes, “You can't believe
how much the people at my job have changed.”
Now
the question is did the people at her job change? Or did she change because she
started seeing things differently. She started focusing on things that she
likes, all the positive things, instead of focusing on the negative things on
what she doesn't like. So that's what I mean, by changing the way that you look
at things and then the things start changing. If your daily focus is on all the
things that you don't have, then you're going to find more things that you
don't have.
But if your daily focus is on being grateful for the things you do
have, then guess what you're going to notice more, you're going to start
noticing and attracting more things so that you can have more, you know what I
mean? So it's the way, it's like most of the things that you in your life, you’re
actually controlling with your mind. It's your attitude and the way you look at
those things.
And as soon as you start changing your Outlook, as soon as you go
away from negativity, onto positivity, from lack mentality to abundance
mentality, from being angry, jealous, and so on to being grateful, things start
changing in your life, you start attracting money, you start attracting people,
because guess what, it's not that the people have changed is because you have
changed by focusing on different things, then you start attracting different
people, because those people start looking at you and go, “Wow, this person is
not complaining, this person is not moaning, this person is not angry, this
person is not sad, they are happy, they are grateful, they're attracting
things, I want to be with them, I want to spend more time with them.”
How does this apply to your business? Well, in very many ways, you know, if
you're desperate, very often, people will not want to buy from you or join your
business because they can feel that you’re desperate to make some money from them,
you’re desperate to recruit somebody in your team. But when you have a
mentality of abundance, that there is unending amount of people out there, and
you enter the mentality of I am here to help people, I am here to serve people
because one of the greatest ways for you to achieve self-actualization is
actually to serve people.
We are surrounded by that but sometimes we miss it.
You know, in religion, it's all about serving people, in many successful
businesses it’s all about customer service. And so if you want to become
successful, think about how can I serve more people? How can I become a servant
to more people? And if you figure that out, if you start approaching people
with that mentality, then I'm not here to get you, I'm not here to get your
money. I'm not here to recruit you. But I'm here to serve you.
How can I help
you? What can I do for you, you become less of a salesperson, and more of a
consultant, more of a helper, more of a servant, where you’re truly looking can
I actually help this person? Can I actually serve this person? And this way,
again, people feel that you haven't got what they call commission breath, just
after their money, you know, after them as a number, but you actually care
about the person, you want to get to know the person etcetera. And people are
attracted to people like that.
That's my message for you. I know it's a bit deep. I know it's a bit complicated,
but it's powerful. Start with these little steps and start changing the way you
look at things and those things you look at, will start changing, you will see.
Just work on yourself and work on your output.
