I recently had the opportunity to conduct a workshop on change management and leadership for a team of about 10 people.  It was a an eye opening experience for me.  Let me explain.

“Life offers neither problems or challenges, only opportunities”  is one of the ways I approach change in my life.  It wasn’t always this way , but now I look at change, and how I handle it,  as a positive opportunity to learn and grow.

The team that I worked with would not, or could not see, that their success depended on how they handled their change. Instead this team kept shifting the responsibility of how they handled their change  to other people, systems and organizations.  Not one person wanted to accept responsibility for their actions, or reactions, towards the change that was happening.  It’s no wonder they are not reaching their goals.

The only constant in life is change. Think about it for a second.

How we choose to handle the change in our lives determines our success or failure.

Questioning your assumptions ,  challenging your limiting beliefs , and looking for other interpretations of the change  you are experiencing  are all ways you can successfully manage your change.

How are you managing your change?  How are you managing your life?
