We very often find ourselves in a place with which we are not familiar. The choices we make from such a place can affect the rest of our lives. The most important thing we can do when faced with an unfamiliar place is to rely on our strengths and ability to think our way through. You may find yourself in a beautiful place where you will want to spend more time. You may also find a place that is detrimental to your very existence. No matter where you find yourself, it is you who is there and that is strength enough.
In our lives we move from one place to another for various reasons. But the one constant that we all take with us is the idea that we can change our ways and habits. It's not because of the new location and new people. It's because a new environment opens doors that were not open before. New people mean new ideas and new ideas lead to new ways of life. Ones perspective also changes as the mood of the new area infiltrates the mind, body, and soul.

Very often, what we believe to be true is not true. This is because a first impression is just that, a first impression. There is not nearly enough time to get to know someone simply by the first impression they make. If one does go by first impressions, he or she will be open to scrutiny because of the choices they have made. In many cases, we get so infatuated with first impressions that it throws us off our path to success. It is funny how just one attractive person can throw your whole life into a new direction.

Once we align ourselves with the right people, there isn't anything we cannot do. They say that you are who you hang out with. This is not always the case. Sometimes our friends are separate from our business environment. There must be a separation between what we do for a living and what we do during our down time. The key is finding a balance between the two. Our friends who are not associated in any way with our business can be invaluable assets to our overall well being.

Time as we know it is a human creation. From time we get schedules that have to be followed. We need to get to bed at a certain hour. We need to get at least 8 hours of work in a day to live. We need two days off a week to refresh ourselves from a hard-weeks work. The point is, time as we know it controls us. We live by time... it's all we know. The funny thing about time however is that it runs out for all of us. We forget that through all our scheduling, all our limitations we set upon ourselves because of time, we must relearn the value of time and how best to spend it. Why is this important? Because our time is better spent doing the things that we enjoy the most. If you can find a job like that, then you have arrived in life.

Very often we find ourselves in a place where we don't want to be. It could be a bad relationship. It could be a job of some kind. No Matter the circumstances, the sooner you break away from "that place" the better. Make a plan that is doable and follow through with it. Sure it may take some time, but that is better than wasting time being in a place you don't want to be.
