When we decide that it's time for big changes in our lives, it
is wise to ease into them by starting small. Small changes allow us to grow
into a new habit and make it a permanent part of our lives, whereas sudden
changes may cause a sense of failure that makes it difficult to go on, and we
are more likely to revert to our old ways. Even if we have gone that route
and find ourselves contemplating the choice to start over again, we can
decide to take it slowly this time, and move forward.
Sometimes the goals we set for ourselves are merely indicators of the need
for change and are useful in getting us moving in the right direction. But it
is possible that once we try out what seemed so ideal, we may find that it
doesn't actually suit us, or make us feel the way we had hoped. By embarking
on the path slowly, we have the chance to look around and consider other
options as we learn and grow. We have time to examine the underlying values
of the desire for change and find ways to manifest those feelings, whether it
looks exactly like our initial goal or not. Taking small steps forward gives
us time to adjust and find secure footing on our new path.
Life doesn't always give us the opportunity to anticipate or prepare for a
big change, and we may find ourselves overwhelmed by what is in front of us.
By choosing one thing to work on at a time, we focus our attention on
something manageable, and eventually we will look up to see that we have
accomplished quite a bit. Forcing change is, in essence, a sign that we do
not trust the universe's wisdom. Instead, we can listen to our inner guidance
and make changes at a pace that is right for us, ensuring that we do so in
alignment with the rhythm of the universe.
