Reframing Change
As we look forward to 2021, consider reframing your view about change.
Change can be distressing because it involves fear of the unknown-the status quo is comfortable, even if it isn’t ideal. That’s why we tend to resist change while clinging to the familiar. The familiar might not be perfect, but change could lead to a negative outcome (key word: could).
On the other hand, looking at change as opportunity propels us forward with purpose. Change is when you lose your job. Progress is when you get the chance to pursue a career more in line with your interests!
