Be Careful What You Wish For

Lately, I've been excited by the possibilities for change. I look out at a population that is beginning to wake up from a long sleep and see the potential the world has to offer us all. It has emboldened me to ask for great personal change in my own life. It also makes me question my own sanity.

Change is difficult at the best of times. That's because change--even small change--requires breaking down and discarding things that no longer work. We believe we want things to be different, but when those things we have used to support ourselves with begin to crumble away we cling to them for dear life and wonder why they are slipping away!

Change requires great courage. You have to understand when you seek change you are telling the Universe you are ready to learn something (and lean on something) new. You have to believe the Universe has your back and will not let you fall, even when all you see is the edge of the cliff.

Understand you may stumble and fall along the way. Sometimes you might fall a long way. The key to swiftly navigating change lies in your ability to understand that somewhere in the confusion and pain there is benefit. Somewhere in the chaos, new life springs forth. It is this new life that brings the gifts you have longed for!

Be careful what you wish for. The process can be painful even when the change is worth it!
