Do You Have the Right Perspective??

Show Notes:
Do you have the right perspective? The reason I ask you this question is to challenge you to really think about the answer. Do you believe the perspective you own for each experience & situation that comes up is the right one?

Of course, everyone will probably believe they have the right perspective because it’s THEIR perspective. Most of the time we are all very biased toward what we know, what we’ve experienced, and what we believe to be true. 

Have you ever thought about how you may be hesitant to see a situation or a person from an alternative perspective because it means the reason or outcome of the situation no longer falls in your favor? You don’t want to admit you’re wrong. You don’t want to put the effort in to see how your actions might have affected someone else in a way you didn’t consider prior to taking action. You don’t want to be uncomfortable and seeing it from another view usually causes us to step outside of our comfort zones.

And why is it important to determine if your perspective is right or not? That’s what we are going to get into today.

I’m also going to share the importance of aligning your perspective with God’s truth and will.

1. The Right Perspective for Problem Solving
   1. Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.”
   2. When we broaden our perspective, we are able to see other options & possibilities for how to solve our problems.
2. The Right Perspective for Resilience
   1. Philippians 4:8, “And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.”
   2. Having the ability to bounce back from setbacks and struggles is a top skill. And we can adopt this mindset & skill a lot easier when we allow ourselves to be in the right perspective.
3. The Right Perspective for Being More Flexible & Adaptable
   1. Proverbs 16:3, “Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed.”
   2. Often times we need to go with the flow, but we struggle with this because we are so set in our ways.
4. The Right Perspective for Improving Gratitude
   1. When this perspective is on point, we encourage gratitude in ourselves. We don’t allow all the hard things to blind us from all the fantastic things that often outweigh the hard things.
5. The Right Perspective for Personal Growth & Self-Improvement
   1. Romans 12:2, “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
   2. The right perspective will allow you to see where you’re flourishing and where you need to put the work in. Shifting your perspective will give you more truth about what’s truly going on in your life, thereby identifying what needs to change.
