    Be careful what you wish for...

    I meant to write about something totally different today, but with change being so good, I got off track. I changed positions at my day job and love what I will be doing but have a learning curve. What I know about myself is that when I don't perform at the level that I expect from myself, it brings up old negative feelings. The good news is that I have resources and am able to push past doubt and remind myself that I too am only human and change is not successful, unless we push past our comfort zone.

    I talk about this with you not because I want approval or sympathy, but to share with you in the hope that it will inspire you to not settle for the old negative lies that we blindly live by. It is in facing our fear and saying "you don't scare me anymore" that we become free from it and find a whole new reality.

    Based on my ability to acknowledge who I am and what I allow to limit myself and moving past it, I have a new level of acceptance and know that change is good and the discomfort in growing is only temporary. Next month at this time, I will be efficient in my new position and feel as if I had been doing it for years.

    After reading this blog entry to my daughter Rozetta, she said it reminded her of a quote she likes by Gail Sheehy "If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living. Growth demands a temporary surrender of security."
