LMTV #65: The Mixed Signals of Change

Change. It’s inevitable, right? In some ways we seek it; in some ways, we dread it. One way or another, we go through it.

We humans are pretty strange creatures, when you really think about it. Here we are, right here, right now. Yet, it seems that in our heads we’re always thinking about something else. To outward appearances, it often looks like we’re never quite satisfied, that we’re looking to the future—for the Next Big Thing. No matter what is present right here, right now, there is always something “out there”.

• “That sounds too scary.”
• “No Thanks. That’s not for me.”
• “I’m not ready… I haven’t had time to prepare for this.”

Oh, yeah! We’re masters of begging for change—only to deflect it when it happens to show up!

If you think about it for a moment, you’ll realize that your life is essentially a series of events that occur primarily because of what you think and feel. What you think and feel leads you so say things, and this in turn usually directs your actions. And guess what? Your actions lead to your results—or what you might euphemistically refer to as “what happens to you”.

• Does any of this sound familiar to you?
• Are you caught up in this dynamic in your life?
• Are you tired of it?
• Would you like to try something different?

Well if you said yes to any of these questions, you might want to consider making a different kind of change—a change in how you approach life.
