"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."~Charles Darwin
How responsive are you to change? REALLY? Or are you just saying that you are responsive to change? Most people are afraid to step out of their comfort zones and make changes. They like to stay "safe" in their little area and not venture out. Here's the sad thing about them; they are not safe, they just think that they are safe.
Heraclitus, a Greek philosopher said "The only thing that is constant is change." In the book Changing for Good, authors James Prochaska, PH.D., John Norcross, PH.D., and Carlo DiClemente, PH.D. detail a six-step program for making purposeful change in your life. What makes this book unique is that, rather than telling you their theory on how to make a change, the authors studied people who had successfully made changes in their lives.
Think about this, Richard Bach said “What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly." What would happen if the caterpillar didn't make his cocoon because he was scared? Or if once he made it, he didn't want to come out of it. It's safe, warm and a great place to be. Well then, why are you still stuck in your cocoon? What's stopping you from breaking out and becoming that beautiful butterfly?
Stop relying on your strength or intelligence and really be responsive to change. Change will create exactly what you want. Step out of your cocoon or comfort zone and become what you were meant to become.
Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!
"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."
