CHANGING THE NARRATIVE “WHAT IF?”

Here's a simple but powerful challenge: When you hear (or ask yourself) “What if?” — how do you answer that question? If we’re honest, most of us imagine failure, worst-case scenarios, and limitations. It’s almost automatic that we anticipate problems, not possibilities.

What if we changed the narrative? What if we answered it with potential, best-case scenarios, and opportunity.

In Kane Brown’s song “What Ifs”, he flips the question and asks: “What if this is it? What if it’s meant to be?” That lyric reminds me that sometimes, the scariest and most powerful move we can make is choosing to believe in the possibilities.

So, try changing your narrative and let possibility lead the way…What if…

• What if I’m more capable than I’ve been giving myself credit for?

• What if this challenge is preparing me for something greater?

• What if today is the day everything begins to shift?

• What if I already have everything I need to begin?

• What if I acted like success was already mine?

• What if it turns out even better than I imagined?

• What’s the best possible outcome in this situation?

• What small step could I take right now to test this idea?

• What if I stopped overthinking and just started?

• What would I do if I knew I couldn’t fail?

• What kind of people or opportunities might I attract if I go for it?

• How could this open doors for others too?

• What ripple effect could my courage create?

• What if we assumed the best in each other?

• What if we looked at this problem as an opportunity?

• What if we built the future we want?

• What if we focused on what we can do instead of what we can’t?
