What is the secret to change?
‘The secret of change is to focus all your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new.’ Socrates
Change can be difficult.
We can cling to the present and past and forget to focus on the exciting things that change can bring.
By focusing our energy on the new and accepting the change, a world of opportunity is open.
At this point, you can ask questions such as:
What do you want to achieve?
How will you achieve it?
What possibilities are now open to you?
I’ve come to understand that all positive change takes commitment. It takes repeated dedicated and consistent action. There’s no way to go back to how things used to be or change any past mistakes - but building new, successful and positive relationships, either in business or with ourselves requires us to look forwards.
A lot has changed in the last eighteen months. Covid has changed the world, and many of our lives have been altered completely by the consequences of the virus. My family has not been left out of this change, and the fear of change and fighting the inevitability of the change has kept us from looking at all the wonderful things it will bring us.
I know it’s difficult as I’m finding it difficult, but I’m going to start building on the new and welcome any change that comes our way.
Onwards. Upwards. Always.
