My blog takes on a life of its own from time to time. When I come to a space where I don’t know which direction to take, I go through a period without knowing the new direction.
I call this space “letting go”.
Two responses begin to exert themselves in this space: (1) I find myself in fear and panic, or (2) my brain tries to ‘figure out’ what to do next. Neither approach accomplishes anything except to use my energy in a negative way. AA calls the second approach: “the paralysis of analysis.”
When I get tired of spinning my wheels, I relax into the solution. It always seems that the solution was there all along and I am the last to arrive at the party.
The new direction for Changemaker has always been there.
We have evolved from mental health to a recovery/addiction to life coach to weight loss to our final destination, I believe.
What we will be concerned with is change of all types and varieties. I’ve know for several years that all I need to do in life to feel fulfilled is to help others. So I will be creating a reservoir for the wonderful opportunities for help with change that exist on other blogs and sites.
If you have any favorite change sites, please email them to me. Life is so easy when I do what I love to do. Steve Jobs gave a wonderful commencement address that he titled: “You’ve got to find what you love.” I’ll write more about his address tomorrow. I want to help you find what you love to do.
