Change is scary

Hello beautiful.

Did you celebrate last weekend's scary holiday? I've been dealing with some scary stuff myself.

In August at the eWomenNetwork International Conference, I made a significant investment in a 9 month program to have the CEO and Founder of eWomenNetwork, the wonderful Sandra Yancey, work with me to redesign my business to fit my current lifestyle and values. I knew this would lead to big changes.

October was my first month of a different kind of change as I moved on after 7½ years as Managing Director of a thriving eWomenNetwork chapter.

Another BIG change!

Change is scary, but it is necessary if we are to grow.

Maybe you're feeling it may be a time for a change, but some of the thoughts swirling around in your head sound like:

"I'm too old"

"It's too late to change"

"Other people are doing the same thing."

I certainly know those emotions. I just realized I wrote about "change" back in September.

But fall always reminds me of how important it is to embrace it. So let's do it!

The trees don't worry as they lose their leaves

The animals who hibernate don't worry about waking up

But, we, as humans worry too much

Worry slows our growth

Worry constricts new ideas to flow to us and through us

Worry doesn't add any hours to our lives

Change is inevitable

Change is needed

Change can bring excitement

Change can be exhilarating

I am choosing to embrace it

I am choosing to embrace change

I am choosing to make it welcome

I am choosing to be curious about what's coming next

Yeah, that feels good…being curious…child-like

I am asking myself better questions, such as…

"What could that look like?"

"What would that mean for me?"

"What could I create that would be meaningful & fun?"

I am accepting change as a good thing.

I am accepting it with open arms.

I am embracing change

I am embracing change

I am embracing change

With a big HECK YES!
