In Order For Things To Change...

Where are you in your life right now? Are you happy with all aspects of your life? Have you taken an accounting of the last 5 years and evaluated where you should be? So many questions, but how many of us even ask ourselves these questions? We may not ask ourselves these questions, but the thoughts are there. If you are not happy at your job or maybe you don't have a job then what are you doing about it? You know you are not making the money you want to and you feel that there is no way out because of the economy, now what?

The easy answer to all of these questions is....CHANGE. The hard part is taking action to CHANGE! If there is something lacking in your life right now, whether it is a job, money, a relationship you must realize that if something doesn't change then it never will. O.K., so I think most of us realize that in order for things to get better in our life we have to change some things if we are not happy.

Now we have to figure out what to change. It is your lucky day because I'm going to tell you what you have to change in order to have the things you want in your life. Actually, there is only one thing that has to change in order for everything in your world to be better. YOU! That's it. See how simple that was? All you have to do is change you.

I know you have heard that before, but what are you willing to do to change you? Are you willing to stop watching t.v.? Are you willing to start eating better or exercising? Are you willing to do something you love to do without worrying about money?  Don't tell me what you are willing to do, tell yourself. Once you decide on something then follow through and don't give up because it is too hard. Don't give up because the easy way out is doing the same things that you were doing to warrant the change in the first place.

I know it sounds so easy, but it is not. You have to first decide on what you want your life to look like, then move in that direction. Take daily steps to get to that place in your mind and when you want to quit..keep going. This is critical because if you don't quit then you are finally coming out of your COMFORT ZONE. Once you come out of that zone, you are on your way to changing your life. Any challenge that comes up will be no match for your desired end result. Where YOU are going is so much bigger than any challenges that come up, so those issues become so small and insignificant that you don't even give them a second thought. In order for things to change...you have to change! The first step is to figure out where you want to be in your life. You can't change anything if you don't know that!
