Changes come and changes go, exactly as they should. Big changes can make a huge difference, but even small
changes can help to transform your life for the better. You can bring about
some of those powerful, small changes in your life.
Change, according to dictionary.com, is “to
make the form, nature, content, future course, etc., of (something) different
from what it is or from what it would be if left alone.”
How can you bring about small
changes in your life?
Four things that you can begin
to do immediately may appear to be only small, insignificant changes, but minor
transitions invariably lead to major transitions. In time, they will change
your life for the better, like creating a chain reaction for good. Note that
there is no cost factor associated with any of these changes.
Small changes that can
transform your life include the following:
Be motivated
Being motivated is a choice
that you make. Consider some of the things that you know motivate
you to move forward in your life or help you to improve your life, as well as the lives of your family and friends. Now begin to search for more hidden
motivators that you may not have been aware of or acknowledged. They will give
you added incentive for change. You will soon learn that the list of motivators
is endless.
Be proactive
Being or becoming proactive is
a choice that you make. Taking a stand rather than doing nothing, involves
decision-making. It is like taking baby steps; sometimes these steps are taken with fear
and trepidation. It requires courage and wisdom to make good decisions,
but even small proactive changes help to determine your transition in the right
direction as you head into your future.
Be positive
Being or becoming positive is
another choice in your life. Understanding that there is a choice you can make
is important, as you may not always realize that there is another possibility,
even in the most negative scenario. You do not have to respond to the negative
with negativity. How you react to negativity can be vital in terms of
determining your future. You have free will. Use it wisely and respond in a way
that brings change in a positive direction. In other words, bring light rather
than darkness into the world.
Be constructive
Being constructive is a choice
you make, as well. In all matters, you can choose to be constructive, to be
destructive or not to make a decision in either direction. You can also decide
to resist being constructive. The choice of being constructive leads to a
positive change, building toward your future or that of others. The choice of
being destructive leads to damage, demolition or change in a negative
direction. Making no decision leaves things as they are, but may allow them to
deteriorate further while you do nothing. Taking a stand that does not allow
change hinders transition.
Note that changes, both large
and small, will take place over time regardless of your decisions. You can help
to transform your future and that of others, by making an active choice to do
so. Even small changes effect transition and change your life, hopefully for
the better.
