“No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.” – Albert Einstein
If there is an aspect of your life, either on a personal or a professional level, that you feel stuck in or is in one way or another problematic for you, this will entail shifting your level of consciousness. The status quo results from staying at the same level of consciousness. Why stay in the status quo when you have been destined for greatness?
What is your status quo?
The status quo is a place where we feel that life or some aspect of life, such as career, relationships, health, and self-image is unsatisfactory, but we choose to live with it because change might seem too scary, difficult, foreign, or overwhelming. In organizations, the status quo hinders growth, innovation, creation, and many times collaboration. To stay in the status quo is to stay in what we have grown to be accustomed to and comfortable with, although we are not completely happy, fulfilled, or successful. The status quo is the level where you feel stuck. It is the level of your problems.
To liberate yourself, your team, or your organization from the status quo requires a leap of faith. It is a journey of shifting your awareness from the unconscious into the conscious. As you shift into conscious leadership, you begin to choose your decisions and actions consciously. When you choose consciously, you choose what helps you, not what hurts you. You will choose to focus on solutions instead of the problems that resided in the status quo.
As a conscious leadership coach, I help individuals and teams liberate themselves from the status quo by shifting their level of consciousness to find the optimal solutions for their problems, and align with their best selves. As Einstein said, “no problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it." Therefore, when you shift your level of consciousness, you will you become a conscious leader, and this will open the doors of many possibilities for you, including finding the optimal solutions for your problems and aligning with your best self.
How ready are you to become a conscious leader?
