How do any of us know we’re ready to change? I’d bet that nine times out of ten it isn’t when somebody else wants us to change. I know that has been true for me! Yet I’d also bet that for most of your corporate or business life, others have thought that was a perfectly good motivator! Now that you’re somewhere near the transition that makes a bit more space in your life (kids leaving home for college or job, your own job that isn’t 24/7 anymore) perhaps there is a change you want to make. Maybe you want to grow a beard, learn to ride a bike, lose 20 pounds because you want to do it. I think that later in life this motivation for change comes from three places–passion, desire, or renewal. In the weeks to come I’ll be talking about each of these as motivator. For now, what changes would you like to make if you thought they would create energy, provide fun, and make you happy? We’ll also be talking about a method that does all three of these things.
