So here we are in a New Year and probably making resolutions for it. We promise ourselves to eat less, exercise more, reduce stress and the list goes on. What has your success been with resolutions in the past? For me, not so good in the past until I realized that setting goals, taking small steps to achieve them and partnering with someone else to share the process was more effective for me. When I have set myself up with a long list of resolutions, I was defeated before I started because the list was too long and took too much time. Failure Failure Failure…was my result.
We all have experienced those times in our lives when one thing ends and another begins, or those times we make a small turn in our path that brings a new perspective. The word transition as defined by Webster’s Dictionary as “passage from one state, stage, subject, or place to another; a movement, development, or evolution from one form, stage, or style to another; an abrupt change in energy state or level.” Whether it is a passage, movement or change in energy, transitions can bring up fear, excitement or vulnerabilities.
