If You Do What Youve Always Done, Youll Get What Youve Always Got - Jane Jackson Career

If You Do What Youve Always Done, Youll Get What Youve Always Got - Jane Jackson Career There is a fabulous poem by Portia Nelson that illustrates how many steps it takes us to learn how to do things differently in order not to get the same result.   Reading it I realise that I have made the same, and similar, mistakes in various aspects of my life from relationships to investments and more over the years.   Luckily I have learned to walk down another street.   I wonder what these words will mean to you?AUTOBIOGRAPHY IN FIVE SHORT CHAPTERS1.I walk down the street.There is a deep hole in the sidewalkI fall in.I am lost I am helpless.It isnt my fault.It takes me forever to find a way out.2.I walk down the same street.There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.I pretend I dont see it.I fall in again.I cant believe I am in the same placebut, it isnt my fault.It still takes a long time to get out.3.I walk down the same street.There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.I see it is there.I still fall in its a habit.My eyes are openI know where I am.It is my fault.I get out immediately.4 .I walk down the same street.There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.I walk around it.5.I walk down another street.
