Take inventory of the value of all the things that are of no longer of use to you but would be a blessing to others
Unreasonable Fix : Empower your environment . Recognize the value of the things around you . If your goal is financial increase to serve an immediate purpose i . e ., purchase a car , pay tuition , attend a conference , look around your office and home . Take inventory of the value of all the things that are of no longer of use to you but would be a blessing to others . Funds can be raised through yard sales . Clothing and books can be placed on consignment . Good cooks make great cash ! Put your skills to work and have a bake sale ! A life reinvented in the new year is as easy — or as difficult — as you make it .
UnSelfsacrifice : We have been taught that it is an honorable act to consistently place other ’ s needs and desires before our own . Poet , William Blake says that “ the most sublime act is to set another before you .” Even God sacrificed his only Son to pay for our sins . On a much larger scale , the act of sacrifice is the epitome of going without for the greater good . However , the argument here is with consistent sacrifice . The universe obliges us everything we desire . The return on our thoughts is exact and uncompromising . To consistently sidestep your blessings creates a mindset of lack . The universe translates this to mean that there isn ’ t enough for everyone and therefore , will deliver unto all except to you — as per your thoughts and actions of willful sacrifice .
Unreasonable Fix : There is such a thing as healthy selfishness . Have you ever noticed roots from a tree bursting through blocks of cement on a sidewalk ? As a tree grows , so does its roots . Maturity and growth require extra space for the benefit of sustaining the life of the tree . The surrounding environment may suffer the effects of the tree ’ s expanding roots but in the end , will make the required adjustments to support its survival . Nature demonstrates the usefulness of healthy selfishness . Act as if you are a tree ! Grab hold of your blessings and maximize your potential to win . The universe provides the space for abundance despite your surroundings . Your circle of support will shift their positions to accept , adjust and appreciate the fruits of your labor .
Enjoy the spirit of reinventing yourself this year by administering a healthy dose of unreasonable actions towards your goals . Conventional rules of play imposed by the masses are wellintentioned but are by no means suited for all . As we approach this wonderful new year of reinvention , it would be wise to boldly step outside the lines of uninspired resolve and institute unreasonable fixes to become a greater version of ourselves .
