“Old ways won’t open new doors.”
What does this quote mean to you?
If I keep doing the things I’ve always done, I’m going to keep getting the results I’ve been getting.
If the results of my efforts are desirable, then I likely should keep doing the same thing.
If the results are undesirable, then I to change what I’m doing in expectation of the desired results.
I also know that with most things in life, there is something called persistence. Many times we might be doing the “right thing” but not get what we’d like right away. Someone trying to lose weight by dieting comes to mind. One may have to stick with a newly acquired habit for a period of time before the desired results are realized. In other words, don’t let short-term results get in the way of long-term goals.
