I looked over at the lines and said, “Maybe, 2 feet?”<\/p>\n
I could see from the smile on his face that he was going to enjoy this conversation. Daniel loves to\u00a0play with my head any chance he can. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
“So, you think they’re 2 feet long?”, he asked again.<\/p>\n
I looked at the lines a little longer and said, “Yeah, I think they’re about 2 feet.”<\/p>\n
Daniel replied…”Nope. They’re 10 FEET LONG!”<\/p>\n
“10 FEET?! No way!”… I looked more closely. There was NO WAY they were 10 feet long. \u00a0I started telling him how 10 feet was like stacking his two sisters on top of each other…. and how that couldn’t possibly be true.<\/p>\n
I’ll spare you that conversation \ud83d\ude09 But the next time you’re out driving, take a look at the\u00a0dashed lines on the road…….they’re 10 FEET LONG!<\/p>\n OK, so why am I sharing this with you? Because perspective is everything.<\/p>\n Truth is, it doesn’t really matter how long the white dashes are on the streets (unless it’s our job to\u00a0paint them). So whether we see them as 2 feet long (like I do) or 10 feet long (as they really are)– it’s not going to make a difference in our world.<\/p>\n But “HOW WE SEE THINGS” in life (our perception) can mean the difference from being miserable,\u00a0unhappy, angry, broke and broken or happy, joyful, productive, wealthy and abundant. Our perception determines<\/p>\n how hard or easy something is… And the list could go on and on.<\/p>\n What IS true is that how we look at things greatly determines how we experience life.\u00a0 Our perception becomes our reality. <\/strong>This is why it’s so critical to learn to look at life with optimistic, loving, hopeful and abundant eyes.

He’s my sidekick most of the time. Daniel is one of these dudes who likes to talk. And by that I mean he never stops \ud83d\ude09 I tend to stay in my head–because I’m a man of few words. … Continue reading Perspective Changes Everything!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,158],"tags":[13,32,159,243,162],"class_list":["post-1469","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-habits-of-success","category-motivation","tag-habits-of-success","tag-happiness","tag-motivation","tag-perspective","tag-success"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1469","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1469"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1469\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1485,"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1469\/revisions\/1485"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1469"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ultalife.co\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a>Then he pulled out his phone and read me how all it’s a federal guideline for every street, highway and rural road in the United States, where dashed lines separate traffic lanes or indicate where passing is allowed. Then for the next 10 minutes Daniel went on to explain why the dashes looked so short but\u00a0were actually quite long.<\/p>\n
