A Paradigm Shift
• With a paradigm shift, you suddenly see things differently.
• Stephen Covey’s presents an excellent example in his classic book, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.
![Page 6: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• A man who is traveling in a subway sees another man get on the subway with his two sons.
• The two boys are completely out of control - running all over the place and bothering other people.

• The behavior becomes so annoying that the man asks the father to “do something about your boys who are out of control”.
• The father replied, “We just got back in the hospital where their mother died. I don't know how to handle it and they don't either.”

• Suddenly the man saw things differently. That’s what a paradigm shift is.
• The kids did not change their hollering and screaming.
• But, the man suddenly looked at them in a different way.

Do you see an old woman or a young woman?
![Page 10: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
If you look at the picture one way, you see an old woman
If you look another way, you see a young woman. How
You interpret the picture depends upon your paradigm.
And your paradigm determines what you are going to
say about that picture.

It all depends upon how you look at things.
Our behavior is the result of the way we see the world.

The Power of theParadigm Shift
![Page 13: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
You may be wondering ….
![Page 14: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
When changing an undesired behavior or habit ….
… we work towards a “paradigm shift” …
… a change in a way that we perceive our behavior and our attitudes.
![Page 15: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
This is an essential step in transforming yourself from being a fat person to a skinny
person…
… from being an overly anxious person to a calm person…
.. from being a depressed, angry person to being accepting and loving individual.
![Page 16: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Before you can change your behavior ….
… before you change your bad circumstances…
… you have to change the way you think about yourself and the world.

It is like strugglingup hill. Before you “get it”, maintaining
a new habit is hard work.
Before the paradigm shift --- like pushing a heavy ball up hill.
![Page 18: The power of the paradigm shift](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bd9e264a7959df4b8b47da/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
However, once you get to the top of the hill, it gets easy. It is fun and you coast.There is a sense of relief. Freedom. A feeling that things are going your way.
It many ways this is similar to a paradigm shift.
