Being Conscious of Writing Your Own Story

writing-story

Hindsight it a beautiful thing – we see our past with clarity and simplicity that we often lack when we are living in the moment. An effective tool in keeping on track with your goals is to ‘feign hindsight’. We look at your life as your story – you are the sole author that dictates your decisions, actions and reactions in life. Each day, you write a new page of your story and it becomes immortalised as your history. When making decisions, it can be very powerful to think about how this affects your story – will you be proud looking back on this moment and this decision when it comes to re-evaluating your behaviour and goals? Is this behaviour in keeping with the type of person that you wish to be? How can this decision be something that you recognise as a powerful step towards living your dream life? Your answers to these questions should make your decisions a lot easier to answer, especially if the ‘heat of the moment’ and external pressure are getting to you. It also helps you to build your own integrity and sense of morality when you continuously align your decisions and behaviours with your ideal version of yourself. So, today is a new page – what would you like to write on it?
