Advancement begins in your mind. But what’s so great about advancement? It’s part of human design, and fighting it isn’t sustainable. There is a part of us that yearns for novelty, to break predictability’s loop and to advance. But the opposing force within us resists any growth. But ultimately, routine and predictability become unbearable. Why? The predictability loop goes against your true nature as an intelligent creature.
Thoughts can be formulaic, creating a predictable loop in behaviors and expectations that over time, are unsustainable for our naturally advancing intelligence. You may reach a point where autopilot just doesn’t seem to do the trick anymore. Why? Because there is a part of you that wants extraordinary results in life. But extraordinary results cannot come out of ordinary, predictable thoughts and behaviors.
Most people don’t know how to advance, so they turn to novelty on the external level – buying more things, eating more food, consuming more media, or thinking they need more resources before they can change. But that doesn’t work. The key is not to dig your heels into your normal routine, but to break out of it, by thinking something new. Even the smallest, new thought will begin to yield new results. The imagination is where new exists. Real advancement comes when you begin to lift the restrictions of compulsive thought, and you start to explore the realm of new thought, new words, new ideas, and new expectations. Those new thoughts become new actions and new attitudes. Those new actions and attitudes eventually yield new and exciting results. Because you have a vast, evolving intelligence, the way you think simply has to advance. Start thinking something new, or better yet, start expecting something extraordinary, but deliberately. Break the loop, before the loop breaks you. Things cannot stay the same, forever – advancement is the only way to go with your life. Start with your thinking!
