We've all heard the saying "Change is constant." We see change happening around us daily. Whether it's changes on our jobs, annoying road construction, the weather or the changing moods of our loved ones -- change has NO CHILL!
But if we know change is inevitable in life, why do we resist it so?
We resist change because we are infatuated with what is familiar to us. Our familiar, comfort zone is quite cozy! And why shouldn't it be?!
We worked HARD to make it comfortable after that last bout with change! We created adjustments, work-arounds, coping mechanisms and the perfect commute to work just to be.....comfortable. Then CHANGE shows up.
Change can mean vulnerability, uncertainty and....work!
But change also means a chance to develop:
1. STRENGTH - Yes, there may be a time of vulnerability or even weakness during a period of change. But the fact that you face change daily and you're still standing means you survived and you're stronger because of it. You don't know the strength within until you've been tested by change.
2. WISDOM - Your mind creates new thoughts and ideas to handle shifts in your life. Even mistakes you make become valuable lessons for changes on the horizon.
3. PERSEVERANCE - The ability to ride the waves of change and see it through to the other side help to build our stamina for greater challenges. With greater challenges come even greater rewards, if we're willing to put in the work.
My hope is that your next change will develop you and get you closer to fulfilling your purpose.
Question: How has a major change in your life changed you?
