A paradigm is like
the lens you see life through.
When a paradigm
isn't correct it's like having a road map of Detroit and trying to get around
Chicago.
It doesn't work
well.
When you've got a
correct paradigm life get's a whole lot clearer.
Before getting
familiar with The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, if I had a paradigm that
wasn't correct, I'd build a new paradigm to compensate for the trouble with the
old paradigm.
This created a great
big tangle in my head, added a lot of stress to my life and made me miserable.
The biggest part of
the problem was that I'd just send myself in circles that got tighter and
tighter.
Once you've got a
correct paradigm, you can build new habits based on that paradigm and there's a
lot less conflict.
Life doesn't become
easy, it becomes easier when you know you are on the right path.
Paradigms that are
correct help to support your foundation, making you stronger and more able to
withstand the storms in life.
