Welcome to my new blog! I am very excited to be a part of the ever-growing online community. It’s my hope that this site can offer a place for us to share our experiences, ideas and wisdom as we go through the challenges of everyday life.
Change is difficult, no doubt about it. We fight it kicking and screaming, because the familiar is always more comfortable—even when it is not serving us. (As Dr. Phil is fond of saying, “How’s that working for ya?”)
This month I’m a walking example of the fears and resistance that change can bring to the surface, as I experience a lot of major changes in my own life: New website, new blog, new brand, and even a new home! I don’t necessarily recommend you change everything all at once, but I do agree with Sheryl Crow when she sings, “A change would do you good.”
Things are changing all around us. Gas prices up, businesses closing, home prices dropping, cutbacks and down-sizing in virtually all job markets. Many people have told me they think twice now before they jump in their cars and drive across town for something. And I know other entrepreneurs who are taking a new long-term look at their businesses, deciding if they need to redefine or reinvent themselves in response to these uncertain times. My own updated website reflects my belief that the need for life balance is even greater in this unpredictable economy.
Maybe a change would do you good. What changes have you made in these uncertain times? What changes do you want to make? I look forward to hearing from you!
