Life will not turn out the way we want it to just because we want it. It changes when we're ready to change, to act, to learn, to move towards something better. There are those who want a new chapter, a better opportunity, more success, a different story but they continue to do the same thing and expect different results. But the reality is that, if you stay where you are, you could go through the same story again.
Movement can be distance not always. Sometimes, changing one's mindset is the only way to change their behavior. It means learning a new skill, meeting new people, beginning that project, applying for that opportunity or having the courage to leave what is no longer helping you to grow. It's possible you don't know where you will end up, but you will end up somewhere you couldn't if you stayed put.
At times, it is important to take a moment to stand still. Needless to say, there is a time for rest, reflection, and patience. But, waiting for the right time is different than waiting because it's an excuse to not do something. It is not possible to live a life solely devoted to preparations for starting. You have to start somewhere.
People stay in the same place owing to fear. They are afraid of failure, rejection, criticism, or uncertainty. They see the problems that lie before them and choose to stay where they are, believing that they can be safer there. However, one of the riskiest things is not to move at all at times. If you don't stand up for yourself, you will never know if you can.
Giant steps are not necessary each day. Sometimes, it takes one decision to make progress. Read a page. Learn something new. Make the call. Submit the application. Start the business. Return to school. Improve your character. Take action you can take today and pray about your direction.
All great journeys start with moving. Slow moving, but moving. Someone who takes a step at a time will get there! Don't scofflaw the little things just because they don't look like a big deal.
A job doesn't necessarily equal a permanent job. We do not have to live in our past. It is possible to turn around. You can grow. There is a way for you to learn from your mistakes and get better. You can choose to tell a different story than the one you've been telling then choose to live a different one.
Continue to do as much as possible, even when improvement is slow. Don't give up when you feel you aren't experienced enough. If the first time, the second time, etc. fails, try again. When it gets rough, stay strong in faith. Each step offers a lesson and each experience can be a learning experience for the next.
Keep in mind that opportunity abounds when there is movement. You might not be able to see the whole road but you can take the next step. Never stay in the same location because you are afraid, feel safe, or don't know if you are truly safe.
If you are looking for a different story, you will need to make a different move. It's the same place with the same tale. Rather, keep going, keep growing and keep growing into the person you are created to be.
