Get a new perspective
Take a break - take yourself 'out of yourself' for a while. Spare a little of that special time to think 'out of the box'. No - not like a company meeting, but in life transforming 'higher' ways.
"Be transformed by the renewing of your mind", the "manual for life" tells us - with the slightly vague hint: "Set your minds on things that are above". But why? And how?
Start by reading the "manual for life".
How can you get a copy of this manual? It's widely available - it's called the Bible. If you suspend your disbelief long enough to ask simply and honestly "If you are there, God, please show yourself to me, while I read this Bible", you could find yourself on the adventure of a lifetime. Because the Bible is your doorway into another world.
