How to Shift your Mindset: Goal Setting

"Send Ben a text"3 Simple Mindset ShiftsDesire vs ShameInstead of letting shame drive your goals, try harnessing the power of desire. Instead of, "I need," or "I should," try . . ."I WANT TO . . . !""I want to stop yelling at my teen.""I want to appreciate my teen."Can you feel the difference?Rather than doing it out of shame, you're doing it for you, out of desire. When it comes to your goals or resolutions, drop the shame. Do it out of love. Do it out of desire for who you want to be.This will be a powerful example for your teens. This will also help you change your mindset around what you and your teen "need" to do versus what you "want" them or you to do. This will help you drop the shame when parenting.Who You Are vs What You DoWho we are determines what we do. Focus on who you are or who you want to become. Instead of focusing on what needs to be done, explore who you must be to do those things. This will help you parent with a new perspective. Rather than focusing on what you've done "wrong," you can focus on who you've become. Rather than focusing on your teen's actions, you can better focus on who they are and who they are becoming. Who you are is the driving force behind what you do.  Be the person that you want to be.Achieve more in 2021 by doing LESS!Seems like everyone has a list of things that they want to do in the upcoming year.There's one problem . . .  So, rather than focusing on all the new things that you want to do in 2021, rather than coming up with a list of "To Do's" try identifying the things that you want to stop doing this year. What are some areas that take up the most time, energy, resources or money?
