How To Finally Have Things Change For The Better
So much can change in one week.
A client (and a dear friend of mine) is going through a time of growth in his business right now. Obviously, that’s good news for anybody and I wanted to give him a few thoughts on this change he is going through.
I just thought I’d write him an email. The royal mail would just take too long.
And as I was writing it I thought: "Jesus, So much changes…"
So many changes in a single week than we can ever imagine. From a new Prince to North and South Korea having some peace settlement thing.
So much changes and that's just only what we see on the surface. Just imagine how many things are changing under the hood without us even seeing it. But they do have an impact on our lives.
For example, the change that we experience every day, every minute, every second is not always felt.
Remember that time you visited your grandparents for Christmas? They were in good spirit and happy to see you obviously.
But how were they compared to the year before? Was that back pain there a year before? Did their hands hurt that much two years ago? Things are changing.
And that’s only what you see on the surface. There are changes happening that you can’t see. And you are not aware of them.
That doesn’t mean it’s not there.
So, as I write this post, on a Wednesday afternoon, raining in England, I reflect on the week I just had.
We had spring, we had summer, we had everything this week… The weather definitely changed…
But why don’t you join me?
Take a moment to reflect on your last two weeks. How did it go and what happened? What’s your biggest win in the last two weeks and what drove it?
And while you are doing this, know that actually, what you're going through right now... Is change.
Because we are always going through change, just we're at different stages of it. And this is what really excites me about life.
Because you know that you never have to be in the same situation that you have been in before.
You know that you can change anything in your life and anything within your business. Not only what you see. But also, what you feel.
Can you please do me a favour? Be honest with me.
How many time have you thought to yourself: "You know what, I can't change anything. I can't change this. I can't change the outcome".
Next time you catch yourself not being able to change this or that, try expanding your vision. Try looking at the situation from a different point of view. You might not be able to change what you see. At least how you see it now.
Look, I know what you’re thinking: This is a pile of woo-woo with no applicable force in the real world.
There always is something or someone that can help to enable change. Whether it’s a one to one session with an employee, or a conversation on a personal level with your Uber driver, a coach that challenge you…
Change is triggered all the time. All you have to do is be curious.
Maybe you consider this article to be long and boring. Or really interesting. Whatever your opinion might be I really want to thank you for taking the time to read it.
You got at this stage in this article because you were curious. Something triggered your curiosity and you just started reading.
And if this short article does something for you, that’s great. My mission is done. It can either be positive or negative. But something will happen.
This type of shifting is what changes things.
Recently I wrote a post on the 3 stages of change. The stages are curiosity, awareness and then the change.
You can’t have change without being aware of the possibilities. And you can’t have awareness without curiosity. So many changes happen under the hood. All there is to it is to be curious enough to be aware of them.
They all tie into each other, and this is something that I've been reflecting on the past couple of weeks for sure. The fact that actually, my business is going in the direction that I want it to go.
I'm speaking to the people I want to speak to, I'm working with the people I want to work with…
These are really great times and knowing that actually it's going to get better and bigger and all the other stuff that comes with that makes everything seems so exciting.
But if I actually stop and think where I was four years ago, five years ago... Sort of trying to do coaching, trying to do this other staff and thinking to myself:
"Is this for me? Is this what I want to do?"
I stumbled into this arena per say and I'm still here, I'm still swimming. At times swimming in deep waters.
But hey, I'm enjoying it. I'm being me. What else can you be?
I’ve been through a lot of changes in the past 4 years. And so much more is going to change in the next few weeks.
So, think about this. If there's something in your life or business that you want to change, what's the first step?
• Is it finding out more about people within your business?
• Is it trying to implement new culture?
• Is it you want to get more confident, you want to speak on stage?
• Do you want to run your own business?
Whatever that change is... You can do it!
Just find the right tools, the right people, the right environment to enable that change to happen and it will happen.
But remember, the change you think may happen, might not be the change that actually happens.
If you want a change in your life and you are curious enough to embark on that journey, but you are not aware of what actions to take to enable that change, I’m here to help.
Tell me what your goal is, what is the end result that you want and I will guide you to find out what has been stopping you until now
