Change

Change. Some thoughts on what is needed for change.

Commitment, it’s deciding what I want to do and sticking to it.

Effort, it takes effort every day to form a new habit.

Dedication, similar to commitment.

Self love, I (and we) all have a vision for how I want my life to be and what positive changes I want to make. Self love is key to achieving a positive change.

Courage, change is scary, it’s the unknown, it’s not safe and outside my comfort zone.

Trust and faith, that it will be OK.

Grace and kindness to self, it’s a journey into the unknown so I have to be kind to myself when I make a mistake.

Resilience, getting up when I fall.

Consistency, not all or nothing. Do something every day towards the vision.

Being realistic, small steps, stop looking at the mountain and just put one foot in front of another.

Belief, in myself.

Honesty and truth with self.

Ownership, responsibility and accountability for myself.

Wow, when I start to think about why change is so hard and literally only spend 10 minutes on thinking about the topics above it’s no wonder it’s hard. There will be a ton more too. Change is about being concious and making a decision.
