Change, change, change: You hear the Beatles now, don't you??

We all experience changes in our lives.  Sometimes these changes are welcomed; sometimes they just whack you out of left field.  Truth is, if you’re not willing to roll with the changes sometimes, you may be missing out on something that can literally transform your life from what it IS, to what it COULD be..  I don’t know about you, but I want to see where change takes me.

Yeah okay, we’ve all heard the cliché’s: “change is good”, “change is necessary”, or my personal favorite “change is hard”.  Well, no kidding!  Websters dictionary states that to change- is to transform, or convert.  How many times have you attempted to transform or covert something without a little resistance?  That resistance, it comes from YOU.. You may not want to admit this, but it is that voice deep down that says, “This is difficult” or “This is uncomfortable” that makes us afraid of transforming our lives, or quit. 

The staggering (yet, blatantly obvious) fact is change happens.

I have been undergoing some massive changes in my life.  Some deeply personal, some physical, and some are emotionally charged.  Unfortunately, I have not taken my own advice, and  I have been in this rut of deciding what to do about these things for months. Since I tend to over analyze things a bit (for those friends reading who actually KNOW me- you may stop laughing now), I often think about changing so much that I don’t actually change a thing. Why?? Because it is way more comfortable for me to sit and worry about things and how they COULD go, as opposed to me getting out there and making things happen for myself.  I think this is a small step in the right direction… hey, at least now I’m recognizing that I need to change some things about myself.

So I leave you with this:  How many times in the past 90 days have you been uncomfortable?  How many changes are occurring in your life right now (personally, or professionally)? How often do you look inside yourself to make sure that you’re actually transforming yourself or converting into the you that you’re capable of instead of the you that is afraid of change? 

My  recommendation to you is this:  Change one thing about yourself for one day.  ONE DAY is all I am asking for.  NO long term commitment; no contract to sign, and with my few loyal readers, it is not like I’m going to know who participated.  However, if you do elect to participate in this DAY of change, I welcome you to let me know how it went.  You don’t have to share with me; but as an unbiased person who writes a blog, I’d probably be a good person to share your changes with. 

Tell me about your transformation.  Tell me about your struggles.  Tell me about how great you felt after you made that change.  After all, change is inevitable; change is necessary,  but most importantly change is GOOD!
