Rule #55: Be Open!

Keep an open mind and heart. This isn’t always easy to do, as we get in the habit of always wanting things a certain way. Although, when you practice living with an open heart and mind you are able to be open to the different people, circumstances, and opportunities that come your way. In doing so, you will be giving yourself the gift to embrace new opportunities, possibilities, relationships, people, suggestions, views, interests, and ideas. Be flexible and not so rigidly “stuck” in your own ways and thinking. This doesn’t mean that you have to believe and accept everything that comes your way. It simply means that you choose to truly listen, observe, and strive to comprehend every situation and person that comes your way. Open-mindedness is linked to positivity and growth. It allows you to take risks, find new opportunities, better understand people, strengthen your relationships, and even manage uncertainty and stress. The pro’s far out way the con’s! So…strive to live in the present with an open mind and heart knowing that the possibilities are limitless!
