STEPS TO CHANGE
This article explores some basic principles of effecting change in our lives. Change involves a conscious effort to move from one level to another (usually) higher level. What motivates change could be anything, but for most people it is a general dissatisfaction with a current situation. A desire for change occurs in many aspects of our lives. It may be a need to change oneself through personal development or a change in business, where one purposes to move onto to a higher level of success. A career ambition may necessitate change for the better. Financial motives may bring about a desire to change and gain financial freedom. There are many more motives of course, but the basic principles remains the same.
In this article we look at 15 principles - motivation, vision, passion, aspiration, planning, objectives, goals, focus, courage, launching, determination, commitment, consistency, persistency and getting. These pointers I believe are basic to successful change and will be explored in greater detail in future articles. An attempt has been made to put them in a logical sequence. Slight variations may however occur in the sequence followed by individuals in effecting the change, but the principles remain largely the same.
As we explore these principles, it is essential to remember that whatever principle we look at, it each is like a building block adding to the total sum and therefore equally essential for the completion of what we initially set out to achieve, that is, bringing our vision to reality through a deliberate effor to change.
