Jumping In

Are You Open-Minded;


How open is your mind? Since you’ve opened your mind to the idea of looking at and experiencing success and influence in a new way, you can already say that you, in fact, are openminded. Which is a very good thing – because, as strange as it might sound, the more open your mind is, the more influential you will become.

Still, many of us have some trouble when facing new things, new situations and new challenges. While some of us are comfortable jumping in with both feet, you might be the person who waits in the background, unwilling or unable to move forward.

Opening your mind is all about letting go – just a little at first – and saying yes to things and experiences you might have said no to. Like starting a conversation with a new prospect or just getting out of your comfort zone.

A closed mind is just that – closed. It closes the door to new thoughts, new ideas and new experiences. It imposes limits on how far we can go and how successful we can become. But being influential is all about breaking down barriers, stretching limits and growing more confident, more strong, and yes, more successful. So an open mind is absolutely essential to the process.

So from this day forward, you will have an open mind. You will experience everything you can – because every new experience enriches you, adding more depth to your being and more layers to your soul.

And makes you that much more influential.
