Change

We all know that change is inevitable. We see it all around us, in nature, in things, in situations, in people. What about us? How willing are WE to accept change when it is necessary? In spite of what we know, we usually tend to resist the idea of changing something in our lives because we are afraid of making a mistake. We think of all the possible outcomes and, as we cannot be certain of a definitely positive result, we prefer to remain in the status quo rather then risk regretting our choice later. In so doing, we stay put in a rut, stuck in a situation which, although not the best, is at least a familiar challenge to deal with. But often, when faced by new happenings that defy us, a different kind of choice is required, if we want to progress on our path. Here is the pattern:
1. We complain about something we are not happy with.
2. We think, we reflect upon the problem, and a possible solution starts to materialize in our mind (light bulb!)
3. Once we make the choice, we can relax and start thinking about new possibilities and opportunities.
How does it sound? Are you willing to take this idea into consideration?
