Episode 39: How Checking Your Cell Phone Service Can Lead To Your Growth

Hello, hello, A:R Nation!

I'm sending good vibes and thoughts your way!

First, I have to give props where props are due.

My girlfriend has supported me with this podcast, and really was one of the driving forces for its launch.

Our conversations often are the basis for the thoughts I share.

Today's episode comes from her as well.

You see, she and I were hanging out recently at our table.

She tells me that she just ordered a new phone to replace her current phone that has a cracked screen.

That prompted me to ask a few other questions: how much did you pay? what perks did you get? did you negotiate your bill down?

Her responses to these questions were a little puzzling as they were automatic objections to changing the status quo.

She didn't realize how she was operating until I pointed it out to her.

I'm willing to gamble, moreover, that many of us operate similarly.

Taking the action that we're familiar with.

It takes an acute awareness to pause and ask, "why am I doing this? why am I doing this in this way?"

If we want to change our lives and grow to new heights, we have to ask ourselves these kinds of questions regularly.

Let's see what she does with this phone. This is the Adulthood: Revisited Podcast.
