STEP 1
Become aware
Every single day is filled with TO DOs and time-tables and schedules and stress and lists and... sigh. We do most of these things on auto-pilot. We are used to this "fast world" and we don't really have time to do anything, yet at the end of the day we realize we didn't really do much...
So the first step is to slow down. To get back to being on "manual mode" and look carelly around you - become aware once agian. Go back to the basics, and question everything you are doing.
STEP 2
Get informed
Do you know how every single thing you do influences everything and everyone you come in contact with?
Do you know how the objects around you became part of your life? How they were made, transported, sold and how you got to own them? Do you remember why you even bought all those things?
Do your research, watch movies about how stuff is made, how they are sold and eventually how they end up in the landfill, in the oceans, in the crops, in the water we all drink etc. You will probably be shocked.
STEP 3
Change your mentality.
If everything is going fine and dandy for you, then you don't have to change a thing, right? But are you sure what you're doing is the right thing to do? Is it really making you happy? Let's check right now, ask yourself "Am I the happiest I've been all my life? Do I not have any worries, any stress? Am I completely satisfied with my life."
Don't you think you need to change something, otherwise you will go bananas? :) Then you do realize that whatever you've been doing up until now was "meh", but not great, that it had some effect on the short-term but it was not sustainable on the long-run, right?
Then it's time to shift your paradigms. In other words, slowly change your way of seeing things and start analysing your life from a slightly different perspective.
We can show you the way to having an awesome way of thinking.
