Sometimes I wake up and say to myself, “Today is the day that I will make changes to my life and will continue to make changes until I have reached that place where I vision myself to be.” I go to work and then when I am done, I am tired, I sit on the couch, watch television, eat dinner and sleep. POOF! The day is gone and I wake up the next day finding myself doing the same thing all over again.
I have found myself…
Last year I left a position, that seemed to me, I was becoming stagant, so I applied for several positions and was able to accept a position that I deemed challeging. The last few days, I found myself again in that situation as my previous position, so I decided to make a change, not in work position, but with myself.
I do now know where I read, that to make a change, as a human, I cannot make large changes that will be life altering. I might be able to do large (abrupt) changes for a day, maybe a week or a month, e.g., diet, exercise, etc., but abrupt changes are not sustainable in the log run and I will revert back to my old routine. So the best to make the changes incremental and small, or even tiny. Try thrity-second changes. Do something that I want to change for thrity-seconds, once I start, see if I continue after the thrity-seconds has completed. This has made a change in my life, hence why I am documenting this. I will continue to make this change until I have reached goals that I have set for myself.
My hope that by December 31th, I can make that leap that I have been thinking of for a while…
