Efforts to Change



"When people make changes in their lives in a certain area,
they may start by changing the way they talk about that subject,
how they act about it, their attitude toward it,
or an underlying decision concerning it."
(Author Unknown)


We can intend to change, but until we come up with a plan to guide us, chances are we will not follow through.  With a plan, our new corrective actions are easier to follow.  By using affirmations to support our mind-set throughout the day, we will continue to move forward into our chosen direction.

Without action, personal change will not occur.  It is when we involve body, mind, and spirit that the adjustment can be permanently made.  There is nothing wrong with asking our bodies to support what we are attempting to change.  Our bodies, especially our bellies, will signal us as we wander off course.  When we remain mindful in each moment, our success is more likely to occur.  Asking for help through prayer, contemplation or meditation will reinforce our actions.

Resistance linked to fear reduces our courage and desire.  It is when we step through the illusion of fear that we become empowered by our success.  Even if the change dissipates, we have still made ourselves stronger through the effort of action.  The experience will help us move farther ahead the very next time we try.
