Embrace Change: Thought For The Day #46 💭✍

in #steem6 years ago

'Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future'. (John F Kennedy)

Though you can resist change and potentially be swept away by it, you can also chose to cooperate with it, adapt to it, and benefit from it.

What happened once you surrendered to change? Did your life actually improve? Can you look back and say, "Wow, I'm glad that happened. Look at the good it eventually brought to me".

Ask yourself the following questions:

  • What's changing in my life that I'm currently resisting?
  • Why am I resisting that change?
  • What am I afraid of with respect to this change?
  • What am I afraid might happen to me?
  • What's the payoff for me keeping things the way they are?
  • What's the cost I'm paying for keeping things the way there are?
  • What benefits might there be in this change?
  • What would I have to do to cooperate with this change?
  • What's the next step I could take to cooperate with this change?
  • When will I take this next step?

@luppers, There is no doubt that in short term phase we will enjoy the resistance of change and love to be in our comfort zone, but over the period of time definitely we will understand why change was vital and many will be thinking about the past decisions.

Universe is greatest example and we should learn from it and by that i mean, in this universe everything is in movement and everything is Subject Of Change and we are part of universe and we should accept the change too. Stay blessed.

Comfort zone has been something that is cropping up for me recently, and you're spot on! Being in your comfort zone is easy in the short term but not healthy in the long term. For me I have been trying to work on my public speaking and coaching and the only way to do that is to 'dive in the deep end' as it were, there's no real warming into it. It's difficult but something I am trying to get out of my comfort zone with!

Thank you for the kind words! You are the best! Please feel free to share your thoughts on my posts again in the future, I am eager to hear what you have to say and will also give you generous upvotes! Upvoted 100%!!

Great to know that you are in Public Speaking and Coaching. Thank you so much and enjoy your time ahead.

It's scary but trying to dive in!

I can understand. When we dive in, then we can control our inner ocean. Have a joyful time ahead.

Currently (and since quite some time ago), we live in a constant "change", and it is necessary to face them in an appropriate way to have professional success. I redeem your post

True! Change is a constant in life!
