COUNT DOWN OF 50 OF THE BEST LIFE HACKS/MARGINAL GAINS FOR A BETTER FUTURE SELF #7


#7. Do the Opposite

 

Sometimes the best thing you can do is to “do the opposite” of what you’d normally do, to periodically surprise people and have them see you in a new way.

It’s easy in life to fall into routines that don’t serve us.

The fastest way to change our game is to rattle our own cage and shake things up.

If you’re always late, try being early.

If you’re always slow, try changing your pace.

If you’re always fast, then try slowing down.

If you’re the person that always says, “No” to things, try saying more “Yes.”

If you always find what’s wrong with things, try finding what’s right.

If you lack your confidence, try strutting more of your stuff.

Doing the opposite of what you normally do, might lead to your next best breakthrough.

Worst case, you’ll learn more about you, you’ll learn more about balance, and you’ll put more options under your belt for how you show up or how you respond in life.
