Why You Should Reinvent Yourself Consistently

I am no stranger to 'failure'. In fact I have failed so many times that I stopped counting. Ironically I am also a strong believer of reinvention and it is one of my many superpowers. A couple of months back I stumbled upon John Mashni on Medium. 

One of his top read articles caught my attention and that was when I started to reevaluate my life. Shortly after I embarked on 100 Days of Reinvention where I commit to a daily post of my own challenges and thoughts on reinvention. So far it has an interesting process to see how my thoughts have evolved overtime. 

The idea of reinvention is not new and yet it is also underrated. To progress consistently we need to reinvent ourselves. We are not the same person today versus a year ago, one month or even yesterday. As our thoughts and interactions change, we need to shed off the old and embrace the new. We have to upgrade our mental software to keep up and improve ourselves.

New outcome requires new action. New action seeks new thinking. New thinking starts with our mind.

I see reinvention as a way of re-calibrating myself and my life direction. I see reinvention as a guide to tweak, change and debunk my own limitations, beliefs and stories. I see reinvention as a playful way to remould my life into any shape I want it to be. It reminds me of plasticine playtime where our only limitation is our mind.

With just 30 days to go to my 100 Days of Reinvention, I am eagerly anticipating what my mind is moulding into. A new website in the making, a newfound interest in herbology, a desire to take more risks and plunge into the unknown. Who knows what will happen but one thing for sure, nothing will happen or change if I stay at the same spot.

What about you?
