Change is...Good.

2010 is a new year. What was cool to do last year has to be refined and reshaped for this year. The way we used to do things more than likely need an update. The world and people are always changing, we have to learn to keep up. Keeping up can be rewarding yet filled with drama and negativity; people tend to hate you more when you are trying to be progressive with your life. 

Saying and doing are two opposites and 2010 has to be all about execution. Many tend to boast about dreams, things that are not yet reality. Or may never be. You can stay in a box while the world passes you by or you can choose to be proactive about the things you want to start happening in your life. Many find it easy and covenant to wait around counting on faith for their 'blessing' and waiting for life's gifts when we have the power within ourselves to make those tiny miracles happen. Don't get me wrong, faith and spirituality are good, I use it. But it has to be used in a way that encourages you to be responsible and intuitive about your life. Also be as educated as you can on whichever spiritual path you choose to take. History shows blood lines leading to dictators, countless wars, and foreign countries where religion was misused for evil. The result was horrific and disastrous.

The world is full of so much noise and so many distractions that we can easily get off track, but once you realize it you have to snap back into focus mode. Slips happen; Rome was not built in a day. Don't be to hard on yourself during transitions and reward yourself for even the smallest accomplishments. One helpful way to stay motivated and progressing forward is to spend the majority of your social time around those with like minds. That not only creates a support system but also encourages you to stay strong and keep going even when things get rough.

Many say you don't need a new year to make changes and I say sometimes you do. Look at 2009, I don't know that many who didn't suffer all the way through. Sometimes a new slate is a better start off then one filled with a lot of baggage and confusion. Take full responsibility for your own happiness. Don't look to friends, co workers, or community leaders for all answers and peace and happiness within. You have to know how to control your life, your choices, and your happiness.

Change is...Good.
