Time for Change: Four Reasons A Person Should Change and Why



Change is necessary, but not all change is good.  It is the revolution of the future.  We need change for growth and prosperity. But what is Change?

The word CHANGE means: To become different, renewed or anew; a shift in paradigm - from ones current state to new desired state.


Personally, I am not one to advocate CHANGE. Unless of course, you are doing it for you and NOT for someone else.  You see; in any event, one MUST want or need to change in order for change to take place in the first place, and we hope for the better.  We cannot be going about telling people to be their "authentic self" and then; in the same breath, tell them to change.  Change for what?  We must all live the life we love and love the life we live; so long as it is a life DEVOID of the four BIG "NESSES".

In order to live a BOLD AND CONFIDENT LIFE one must first devoid one’s self of what I call the four BIG NESSES and/or the tell-tale signs of LOW OR NO SELF-ESTEEM:

Disrespectfulness: 
RUDE, DISCOURTEOUS, SARCASTIC, CONTEMPTUOUS, YELLING, CAUSING ANGER OR ANNOYANCE, SPEAKING OR ACTING IN SUCH A WAY

Ungratefulness:  
UNTHANKFUL, UNAPPRECIATIVE, UNPLEASANT, NOT GIVING DUE RETURN OR RECOMPENSE FOR BENEFITS RECEIVED

Mean-Spiritedness:  
COWARDLY, CRAVEN, DISLOYAL, BULLYING, MALICIOUS, PETTY, UNTRUE, HATEFUL, JEALOUS, ALWAYS WANTING TO HURT OTHERS CONSCIOUSLY OR INNATELY

Weakness:  
ARE YOU A PUSHOVER, THE AGREEABLE ONE, LACKING FIRMNESS OF CHARACTER OR STRENGTH IN WILL, EASILY DEFEATED TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF, SELF-PITY OR VICTIMIZED SYNDROME
DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASSERT YOURSELF OR EVEN BECOME THE “PROVERBIAL B!TCH”, IF IT MEANS STANDING UP FOR YOUSELF AND YOUR WELL-BEING.
These four NESSES are life’s greatness ENERGY ZAPPERS.  They serve no other purpose other than to hold US back from attaining our full potential, personal balance and spiritual richness. If you are holding on to any of these, I beg you, let it go!

You need to be REFORMED if you:

  • Always twist the truth to make others look bad or sympathize with you
  • Are a Notorious liar
  • A Thief, or
  • A Menace to society.

How does one change?

In order to change, we must be serious about change. Change must be a personal commitment and a ritual for it to take place. We can change by doing one or all of the followings:
  • First acknowledge the need for change
  • Be willing to RE-LEARN and break old cycles or patterns
  • READ Self-help books and Article or listen to Audio CDs and the likes – Knowledge is Power is the Key
  • Enlist the HELP of a Personal Development Life coach or a Counsellor
  • Surround yourself with PEOPLE who exhibit the change you desire  
  • – The power of Association
  • Believe in yourself and Trust God to help you get through it.

When Your Best Isn't Good Enough

Ever feel like no matter how hard you've tried or how much effort you put into something or someone, your best just isn’t good enough? Well, my mother, God rest her soul, used to say: "When man on earth has done their best, Angels in heaven can’t do more." I loved that woman... she was such an inspiration and my best friend. I miss you so. Well, here are some other advices I have gathered to help us feel better when life knocks us down:

How to Get the Life You Want:

According to Stephen Covey, in his book 7 Habits of Highly Effectively People,  in order to be successful and live the life you want, you must " put first things first" .  A pretty old saying if you ask me.  Something my own parents or grandparents have said for decades.  Now I am going to tell you the same thing again.

Happiness is a Myth

What if I told you everything you thought you knew about happiness is wrong? The truth is happiness is a myth and an illusion that is  overrated.   It is like chasing after a butterfly. The more you pursue it, the more it eludes you, and the moment you catch it is the moment it begins to die.  So, from whence came the word happy? According to The Oxford English Dictionary, the first record of the word was around 1350,   from Middle English, "a form of the English language spoken after the Norman conquest (1066) until the late 15th century," which is a derivative of the Old Norse "happ," meaning "luck" or "chance."  It combined "the word hap, meaning "a person's luck or lot," and the suffix –y, meaning "characterized by," to   form diminutive nouns and adjectives denoting a state, condition, or quality.  Then, in essence, when someone says, "I want to be happy," they are really saying that they want someone e...
