I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming. If we don't change direction soon, we'll end up where we're going. When it becomes more difficult to suffer than to change. If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living.
Growth demands a temporary surrender of security.
It may mean a giving up of familiar but limiting patterns, safe but unrewarding work, values no longer believed in, relationships that have lost their meaning. The real fear should be of the opposite course. Sheehy Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. We are like eggs at present.
