Move through Life Changes
Life is always moving and changing. Changes are a part of the cycle of life. Sometimes you initiate a change. You make a decision, a choice, then make a plan to move to and institute the change.
Sometimes life throws you a change that you didn’t see coming or don’t want at all.
Even your dreams require changes. The old needs to fall away so the new can come into your life.
There is always a period of transition when we go through life changes. Often in those moments of transition we wonder if we are making the right decisions. Often we want to just go back to the way things were before.
Life changes open us up to possibilities. It often brings opportunities we would never have had if we weren’t making changes, or if parts of our life hadn’t fallen apart.
When you choose a life change you have motivation. Your reason and goal for making the life change helps move you forward. Still you can question and doubt your choice or decision. Or if you find yourself up against a challenge you may give up.
Focus on the end result is what will continue to encourage you and move you forward.
When a life changed happens that wasn’t a choice you made but because of circumstances or a situation that is beyond your control your first response is often one of shock. And it takes time to come to terms with it.
You need to allow for the stages of grief to move through you. Also you may even experiences stages of grief when you choose a life change.
Plan a transition time, a period of allowing the grief, coming to acceptance and then making a plan to move forward. You may not be able to see the end result but know that you are capable and that things will eventually work out. Once you move through the transition period, you can take the time to contemplate a new dream or new direction for yourself.
Life always falls into place. Sometimes mysterious and magical energy is at work. Have faith and be open to the possibilities. Know that you will move through and find your way again.
