What if changing your perspective could change what you believe is possible, what you prioritize, and what you actually do?
In this episode of Breakthrough Mode, Megan takes the “Up Level Your Thoughts” piece of the RITUAL framework from concept to practice. Instead of simply trying to think more positively, you'll learn how to intentionally shift the way you look at your circumstances by thinking from the perspective of the person you're becoming.
Megan walks through five practical ways to do this: ask better questions, stop using your past as a prediction, consider what your future self would prioritize, choose thoughts that create useful action, and then carry those thoughts with you as you take action. The goal isn't to ignore reality or convince yourself that everything is easy. It's to change the thinking that influences how you approach reality so you can create different results and become a different version of yourself.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Why the quality of the questions you ask yourself matters
- How to turn low-quality questions into questions that create useful action
- Why you should use your past as information rather than a prediction
- How your brain can use past experiences to anticipate what comes next
- How to ask what the future version of you would prioritize
- Why the things your future self prioritizes may be the very things you're currently avoiding
- How to choose thoughts that encourage action rather than undermine it
- Why your thoughts and actions need to work together
- How to practice an up-leveled thought while you're actually doing the thing
- How repeatedly thinking and acting from your next identity can help you become that person
In short: Megan gives you five practical ways to shift your perspective and start thinking from the person you're becoming. When your questions, thoughts, priorities, and actions all point in the same direction, you can begin creating your future instead of simply repeating your past.
