There is one thing in our lives that remains constant . . . Some changes are good and some bring sadness. Sometimes we are filled with excitement, sometimes dread. No matter what the change, there is a process we go through to successfully handle change. It can be forced or something we choose to do.
Transition is internal.
It is our emotional reaction and attitude we use in deciding to accept, adapt, or resist change. Transition usually starts with an ending or the realization that things are not going to stay the same. In order for us to move forward and have some control over the outcome, we need to let go of the past and start exploring all our options and opportunities. Prior to a change, we were comfortable because our situation was familiar. We resist change due to fear of the unknown.
