Shifting Perspective

I take the first image.  Not quite what I want.
I take a step to the right.  Not quite it yet.
I take two steps to the left.  Ah, this is it!
This perspective is the shot I want to create.
What is the life I want to create?
Do I shift my mental perspective
To achieve the experience I want?
And if I'm honest, I can yes I do.
But only sometimes.
I wonder what stops me from taking a step
To shift my view when things aren't quite right.
So easy in photography.
Not so easy in life.
