Many people live in this world, constantly changing and
moving, while others live life and don’t experience much change.
Why is change important? I believe it’s the only way you grow to a new level of success. Success can be defined as your ability to accomplish a goal but, the definition of success is not the same for everyone. Some people view success as owning their own business, others view it as having a career while others just want a job. Regardless, we each have our own definition of success.
Many people are afraid of change, the unknown, and are not
confident to take different steps. It’s
normal for us to feel this way especially when our skills, experiences or
opportunities are limited. The “unknown” can be scary, compromising and hard to
adjust to. Many people say “I’m doing
it,” but don’t realize how comfortable they are and that they’re really not moving
forward.
I personally went through a period of my life in which I
talked, and tried thinking about moving forward but I wasn’t taking any
action. I made myself believe I was
taking action because I said “I’m moving forward, I’m doing this, it’s
happening for me” but, I didn’t have any action to back up my words. I was reluctant and very fearful about change.
It felt warm, comfortable and easy to do
the same thing I was already doing every day.
Today, I live my life around a “To Do List” with a purpose. This list has written goals, steps and
deadlines for me to complete. Life
always presents us with unpredictable situations and so this is a way for me to
remain focused. Action creates movement which
allows you to get to another place. Whenever I find myself comfortable, that’s
when I feel lazy and don’t do much. I force myself every day to make better
choices, complete “To Do Lists” and move one step further. I encourage you to challenge your ability to
be better, be different and it all starts with ONE step at a time….
This is GOALYGO!
