The Challenge of Change: January 2012

Welcome

2014 Another year of transition and change

What things are you going to change this year and how are you going to get the outcomes you want?

In 2012 year I committed to a 100 days of doing one thing new each day. A Change Challenge! A fun idea! Perhaps! What I discovered is that without a plan and an overarching goal there is not much point.

Change requires energy, motivation and a purpose. In fact change is made up of a whole lot of little actions moving towards

Henry Ford said " "Failure is only the opportunity to begin again, only this time more wisely." Welcome 2014 and the opportunity to build on what I have discovered.

Let me know what you find valuable. Feedback is fabulous!

Plan Persistence & Possibility

“The key to change... is to let go of fear.”

I started out with enthusiasm. Talked to friends and others about what I was doing. Like any new plan I was engaged for the first few weeks and then it trailed off. What got in the way? . I began to question the relevance of what I was doing. Why bother no one else is looking. Without a map I lost my way. I was disappointed in myself so I said it doesn't really matter. Isn't that why we tackle the discomfort of change because we want something better. It takes the 3 P's PLAN -PERSISTENCE and POSSIBILITY

What Have I done?

I find writing a blog challenging. When I started I was really pleased with myself, it was just like writing a journal. I didn't intend to share it with others, but without feedback I soon lost interest. Writing a blog reveals who you are. I haven't got time to create a new persona.So sometimes I feel like the fish in that fish bowl, very exposed.Writing a blog takes discipline, it takes time and if it isn't going to be of value to anyone why bother.
I really had to ponder if a Blog was for me.
Doing anything new can be challenging. It won't be sustainable unless it is linked to a clear purpose. So my purpose this year is to explore change that support who we are when we are at our very best.
