Great Changes Ezine Issue #1: May 4, 2011 Welcome to this FIRST ISSUE of Great Changes Ezine! I thought I'd kick it off by writing a short article called: Do you REALLY, REALLY WANT IT?Do you really, really want IT? What is IT, you might be asking yourself? IT’s that important thing you think about from time to time, or maybe ALL THE TIME. IT’S that thing that’s truly within your reach, not some pie-in-the-sky dream like winning the $100 million lottery. Maybe you’ve only started to think about IT recently, or maybe IT’S been on your mind for years. That’s not the point, because IT’s something that keeps coming back to your thoughts. You tell yourself you want IT, but you haven’t obtained IT, at least not yet. So I wonder: Do you REALLY, REALLY WANT IT? Because if you do, what’s stopping you from really pursuing IT? Here are my questions: • Have you thought IT through? As they say: ‘The Devil’s in the details”. Unless you know your goals, and make a plan to make IT happen, you’re much less likely to act and get IT. • Are you avoiding IT? Many of us are procrastinators, who wait and wait and wait to do the things that would be great to do. • Does thinking of IT make you a bit nervous? As they say: “Change can be hard.” We’re all creatures of habits, so doing or having something new can be stressful. • Are you concerned about costs of IT? Obtaining new things and making changes typically have costs associated with them, whether it’s time, effort or money. Even if IT will be really good for you, and well worth doing or achieving, that doesn’t mean you’ll ever have IT. WHY IS THAT? People make changes for two reasons: 1) We HAVE TO, and 2) We WANT TO. But in reality, people don’t always do things they have to do, because they don’t want it enough. So, in conclusion: You will more likely get IT, when you REALLY, REALLY WANT IT. Here are three ways to help you commit: 1) Tell one or more people close to you that you intend to do IT (and by when), 2) Contact a Coach to help and encourage you to accomplish IT, and 3) make plans and start taking action. can accomplish, no matter what IT is!"
