Today I was looking at my blog feeling there was nothing else to say or write about. I know this is only true if I believe it. So, I moved myself into the space of what is possible?
In coaching we use geography. We ask clients to move in order to change the energy. Often we are stuck in our negative thoughts, powerless, unable to the possibilities. But there’s always a different way to look at things, it’s like the example of a half empty/half full glass, the way we see it will depend on the person, or the mood.
When we try to accomplish things in the space of limited possibilities, the results will show. They will be average, and it will feel we have to push to get things done.
Whereas, if we can connect with the essence of what we want to achieve and why; if we can look at the sky and believe for a second that anything is possible, we get into a space of expansion and new ideas. Our projects become much more rich in quality, much easier and fun to do.
I have been in brainstorming sessions where people start throwing in ideas and others immediately respond: “This is very difficult”, “we have tried this before and it didn’t work”, “our customers will not value this”, … So what happens is that we lose momentum and people stop thinking out of the box, we are automatically limiting our possibilities.
Inside ourselves we have conversations like that: a voice trying to bring in possibilities, and another thinking of the limitations. Be aware of those conversations inside yourself and around you, and ponder this question for a while: What is possible?
