What if the way you approach your day is being influenced by a version of you that you're actually trying to outgrow?
In this episode of Monday Morning with Megan, Megan breaks down the “U” in the RITUAL framework: Up Level Your Thoughts. This isn't about positive thinking, affirmations, or pretending everything is fine. It's about intentionally stepping outside of your default perspective and borrowing the perspective of the version of you you're becoming.
Your past experiences, habits, circumstances, responsibilities, and other people's expectations all have influence over how you see your day and the decisions you make. But what if, instead of letting those things make the decisions for you, you asked how the future version of you—the person who has accomplished what you want and lives the way you want to live—would approach them? Megan explains how practicing this shift can change the way you problem-solve, prioritize, and show up for the situations in front of you.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- What “Up Level Your Thoughts” actually means within the RITUAL framework
- Why this practice isn't simply positive thinking or affirmations
- How your past, habits, circumstances, and other people's expectations influence your decisions
- Why your current perspective can keep you repeating your current patterns
- How to borrow the perspective of the future version of you
- How to ask what your future self would consider important
- How your future self might approach problems differently
- Why making decisions from your next identity can help you become that person
- How to recognize when you're operating from your default way of thinking
- How to “try on” a different perspective when you're facing a stressful situation
- How to use this practice to change the way you problem-solve and show up throughout your day
In short: Up Level Your Thoughts is about stepping out of your default perspective and borrowing the perspective of the person you're becoming. When you start making decisions from that next version of you, you begin practicing being that person now.
