Slow It Down To Change Lanes

You can't take turns at high speeds with out compromising your handling. Even the most expensive supercars can not defy the laws of physics. Lateral force has its limitation whether from the rubber compound in the tires, the suspension setting or whatever on even the highest of the hih performaning cars. Whenever we have a knee jerk emotional reaction to something it is in fact a response we create to the stimulus. In order to change lanes we have to pump our emotional brakes.

This is far easier said than done but how often have you given a sincere effort to pump the brakes and change lanes. Creating space between reaction and response takes practice, a lot of practice. But little by little it gets easier to do. Take whatever reaction you wish to change and just start by consciously telling yourself you are going to pump the brakes. Make the commitment. It may take a couple of hundred of attempts to change lanes but I guarantee you can change lanes.

Don't give up or settle on a resposne you are not happy with. Visualize that response you want to be able to generate and see yourself changing lanes and making it happen. The beauty of this practice is that once you do it once, the confidence you will receive to do it again will be incredibly empowering and lead you down that path where you are creating change in your life you probably never believed you were capable of.
