LIFE: Going through change

Change is difficult. It is far easier to just stay where you are. We get very familiar where we are and to begin to make changes takes us out of our comfort zone. The very first thing that needs to be done when considering making a change is to write your goal down and commit to take steps toward fulfilling that goal! If you don't know what step to begin with, ask around, do some research. There is help available.

Commitment means I’m going to give 110% and not give up when I get tired, ridiculed, frustrated, or negative.

When you decide to make a change, write it down and begin visualizing making progress toward that goal. Make a plan. Write out steps to getting out of debt, or losing 20 pounds, or getting a new job. If you want action, you have got to take action, be disciplined, and persevere.

Believe in yourself and keep a positive attitude. Change sometimes takes time and more effort than you may think you have, but it is possible! Successful people often have this attribute of commitment, even when the storms come. Don’t be afraid. Believe.
