Wrapping up our monthly focus on “Harnessing Powerful Thoughts”, I thought I would make today’s Thought Partner tiny but mighty.
The other day, I was listening to Suze Orman’s podcast: Women and Money…and everyone smart enough to listen, and she was soapboxing (I say that with much love and respect) about the power of the word CAN’T. She expounded on how the word CAN’T keeps us stuck, paralyzed, and in her world, financially underperforming.
Being the powerful woman she is, she offered an alternate definition for the word CAN’T.
Rather than can’t meaning CAN NOT.
She offered that CAN’T means CREATE A NEW THOUGHT.
OOOOOOHWEEEEEE….you know I had to stop and write that one down!
CREATE A NEW THOUGHT. That’s it.
It’s not often we can’t do something, it’s more likely we won’t. (Think about that for a second and you’ll realize I’m on to something.)
So, taking inspiration from Suze and putting an SBJ spin on it, I offer you a new meaning for the word, CAN.
CREATE ACTION NOW.
Next week is the last week of July. We’re more than halfway through the year!
What NEW THOUGHTS do you need to create about something you need or want to do?
How will you CREATE ACTION NOW to get started?
