Many of us resist change.
Sometimes changes we go through in our life are scary and intimidating, and yet, everything in life is always in the state of changing.
For example, did you know that each day your body replaces cells in your body, as a matter of fact the body's cells largely replace themselves every 7 to 10 years? In other words, your bodies old cells mostly die and are replaced by new ones during this time span, and you literally become a completely NEW YOU, how cool is that?
Change is inevitable for sure but here is the wonderful news, you are not confined to be a bystander in the process of change, in fact, you have more control than you know, and you most certainly have the power to change YOU!
How?
When you consciously decide to change your perspectives, views, expectations, judgements, bias etc.… the very act of doing so sets up a domino effect which will in turn facilitates change to occur around you. The changes you make in your life do influence others around you and they respond either consciously or unconsciously to the changes you are making.
Try not to be afraid of change and I certainly recommend that you take the time to go within yourself and reflect on the things that are important to you. Look at the things you love in your life as well as the things that you don’t like. After doing so simply decide which of your perspectives, views, expectations, judgements, bias you are willing to change to make your life more positive. Though this conscious focused intentional awareness and desire to change the universe will step up and bring the changes into your life (inside and outside you) allowing you to co-create the magical life you want.
So, remember when things change inside you, things outside of you also change, this is literally the law of the universe!
