Questions- 

What is driving change to you? 

What outcomes are you looking to achieve? 

What gets in your way or inhibits your progress?


“break old patterns, generate original ideas and act with persistence in uncertain times.”


Driving change sometimes means delving into the unknown, without knowing the exact outcome, but the best outcomes sometimes come from taking measured risks. Change is something that people struggle with a lot. Sometimes, I even struggle with the thought of change. Change can be many things. Change can be an opportunity, or even sometimes a challenge. Preparing your mindset is important. Implementing change can be difficult, but be firm with yourself. Know that you can handle it. Recognizing and adapting to said change is important. Effective communication is important, especially during challenging changes. Celebrate your progress, it matters. You matter! Your feelings, and the things you’re going through that no one knows are important. People change every single day.  You have to be courageous, and stand up for your values, make decisions. Be creative, come up with new and exciting ideas! Share with the world! Be optimistic about new beginnings, have confidence in the possibility of meaningful change. Lastly, perseverance! Be productive, be proud. “In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth, or step back into safety.” -Abraham Maslow

I have a very mixed relationship with change. I expect people to change immediately. Including myself. And that leads to frustration. Some change I'm really enthusiastic about, particularly if the benefits clearly outweigh the costs. Other change I can be very resistant to. Fear is the biggest factor that resists change.

@youcandothis0012 I really appreciate your perspective on change. It’s true that stepping into the unknown can feel daunting, but as you said, some of the best outcomes come from taking measured risks. For me, the drive to change comes from a deep desire for personal growth and making a positive impact. Change isn’t always easy, but I believe it’s necessary to evolve and reach our full potential.

The outcomes I hope to achieve are resilience and new perspectives. Btw that Maslow quote is such a great reminder that we always have a choice to grow or to stay where we are. 💙
