Recently I came across a plot synopsis for the next (yes, next) Rambo movie. Apparently the Sylvester Stallone character will battle some kind of monster in this installment.
I've never seen a Rambo movie but I am aware of them. Upon seeing news of the upcoming film, I found myself saying, "But that's not Rambo. He doesn't fight monsters. He battle terrorists, communists, and other bad guys."
Then I realized that my thought process might be a bit limiting. After all, Rambo is a totally fictional creation. The idea of such a super-soldier is not based in reality so why should it matter who he's up against. If it were George Washington fighting aliens, instead of the British, then I might have a problem (Actually, call my agent...). But when it comes to Rambo, it's all make believe.
Every day we walk around with a set of beliefs that may be based on the strangest things. Beliefs can be good things as they can help protect us from certain unpleasant situations: Like believing it might not be a good idea to walk around by yourself late at night in a dangerous part of town. But they can also put a box around you that limits your experiences. As a professional speaker, I often meet people who continue to follow a routine because they believe it's the right thing, even if they are unhappy with the results they're experiencing.
Take a moment to consider some of your beliefs and decide whether they might need some exploring. If anything, you might receive affirmation that what you think is correct. But you might also open your mind to new possibilities.
