How To Change Your Life In One Step

By Bessie K. Dowling


How to change your life can be a simple process. It requires you knowing what you want and steering clear from what you don't want, making manifesting your desires a piece of cake. But is it that easy?It isn't that easy, yet the process is simple.You see, life is what you make it. You can have, be and do whatever you want. The world is full of abundance just waiting for you to grab it. We often hear these statements in one form or another, yet you might still be wondering, "How can I have, be and do whatever I want, and where's the abundance that they all talk about? They all give you the 'how to change your life' formula with bits missing. What can I do to have the things I want to show up in my life?"

We learn and acquire habits during all our life. Habits are those familiar and automated actions resulted from learning processes. Any task or action we learn how to do and then perform repeatedly transforms into a habit. This is the mechanism through which we get used to do a lot of (good or bad!) things like: walking, cycling, reading, witting, driving a car, using the computer, smoking, watching TV, drinking coffee, hanging on forums or Facebook, etc.

Your thoughts are your most powerful asset. The way you think literally creates the life that you live. You are living your life now exactly in line with how you've been thinking up until now. If you constantly have worrisome thoughts about how you're going to pay your bills, you will increase your worry and have more bills to pay. Worse yet, if you continually worry about your financial situation, there will be increasingly more to worry about.

Have you ever thought about changing something in your life such as starting a new career, learning a foreign language or getting more fit? Maybe you have even attempted to do new things or change old behavior patterns, but your enthusiasm didn't last too long. And you gave up. It happened because habits are actions we make unconsciously. We just feel like we need to do a certain thing without asking ourselves why we have to or what is in it for us.There are important changes in our lives that compel us to modify at least a part of our habits. This arrives for instance when we finish school and start working or when we get married, or leave our parents' home and move in our own place. In all these cases, we cut sharply the connection with an old familiar environment and have to adapt to a new one. When we feel at ease in our new environment, it means that the new habits are installed.

Here's how to change your life in one single step: feed your mind with positive situations and material items you have in your life, and be grateful for them. Be grateful you're alive, be grateful that you have a roof over your head, that you have clothes to wear, that you have a TV, a computer, a car or money to take public transportation, a job. As you focus on the great things that you already have in your life, you will shift your focus from the gloomy and negative to the bright and positive. And when you are grateful for those situations and items you will manifest more of them. For you to become happy in life, have happy thoughts; be more aware of the happy moments that you have, focus on them, be grateful for them and you will have more happy moments to enjoy.This may take some discipline on your part, but, if you want your life to improve, it's important that you take control of your thoughts; switch your negative and gloomy thoughts and turn them into bright, positive and grateful thoughts.

Secondly, through a step by step process, we are going to start making the desired changes. It is very important to not overdue. Don't start with more than one habit and, at the beginning, my advice is to perform the new action for short time spans, then increase the time gradually. Once you have the first habit installed (it will probably take 1-2 months), introduce a new one. Making small steps every day is the best way to succeed. Be prepared to overcome setbacks over time because habits are usually strong enough to not let us change them easily.Make a plan and follow it, and be patient and persistent. Trust the method and be proactive.In a few weeks you'll be proud of yourself, self-confident and ready to take on new challenges.
