Are you completely satisfied with your life? The more relevant question to get us started is “why do I need/want to expand my life?”. In most cases we don’t want change for change sake, we want a better, more interesting, more fulfilling life—in other words—an expanded life.
Expansion is a better way to describe these changes because the process I’m suggesting is based on literally expanding the horizons of what you do. New people, new skills, new experiences, new self-esteem, new places…all of these things represent change and they are accomplished by expanding your openness to new things, even if you do it on an incremental scale.

Recommended Reading
- The Power of Positive Thinking. This is the classic on why being positive is not just a nice idea, it is an essential skill for expanding your life. Very ‘old school’ (it was written in the 1930s) but it has been a perennial best-seller ever since.
- Think and Grow Rich. Again very old school but another classic on using the power of visualization to make things happen.
- Frogs into Princes : Neuro Linguistic Programming by Richard Bandler and John Grinder. There are dozens of books and training on NLP but this is the classic starting point for what started out as fast therapy and is now a widely used approach to lifestyle design. Very entertaining too.
