Here’s What Happens When You Finally Go to the Next Level of Your Life
Leonardo DiCaprio once said, “Every next level of your life will demand a different you.”
Of course, most people never do it. They never evolve. They never give up who they are for who they could become. Instead, they continue to live the same stagnant, mediocre, and boring lives.
That’s fine; if you decide to play small, that’s entirely up to you.
But the question is: What actually happens when you do go to the next level?
Let’s see.
You’ll Initially Feel Like Turning Back
You’ve just let go of your story. You’ve given up your past. You’ve let go of your need to predict the outcome in order to embrace a bigger future.
And as a result, your subconscious will immediately be fighting for homeostasis. It will try to convince you that you’ve taken a wrong turn and need to go back. But what’s interesting, is that you actually can’t go back.
As Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. said,
“A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.”
