Life is not a dress rehearsal, so trying something new for the fun of it can provide a different life for you.

As a coach who works with people in transition, I like to promote the concept that life is one big experiment. Just ask yourself the questions:

What can you do different today that will bring great pleasure in your future?

What aspect of your life do you want to improve?

Tell me about the adventuresome side of your life.

Do you need permission to do something you dream about?

When you were a young child, you experimented with new situations in your life (learning how to walk, ride a bike, climb trees, ride the subway—alone, etc.). As your experiences grew, some become habits that formed the standards that you live by now. Are these standards still useful? Do they need to be traded in on newer, more sensitive standard to your present needs? This is where the experimentation process take effect.

Experimentation does not have to be risky. Experimentation is your personal process where you get to try something new, something that you have been dreaming about, and something that will test out a thought or belief you might have. It can be your secret, and only you will know the results. And with those results, you can either move toward change, or reconsider what your next step will be. Remember, by being a master experimenter, there are no mistakes, just experiments that show promise or not.

生活不是一場時裝秀,嚐試一些有趣的事情,可以讓你感受到不同的生活樂趣。

我是一個私人教練,指導需要轉型的人。我認為生活就是一次大實驗,試問你自己幾個問題:

今天你能做些什麽事情來使自己未來的生活更快樂?

你想改善生活的哪一個方麵?

告訴我你生活中冒險的一麵。

你夢想要做的事需要得到別人的允許嗎?

當你小的時候,你會嚐試生命中出現的許多新情況(獨自學走路、騎車、爬樹、乘地鐵等)。由於你不斷增長的閱曆逐漸成為一種習慣,形成了你現在的生存準則。然而,這些準則還適用嗎?是否需要提升到新的、更適合現在需求的水平呢?這些需要嚐試來實現。
