Great post!One interesting thing that this reminds me of is hypnosis. s"Supposedly" when someone is hypnotized, she can do a lot of physically amazing things that she can never do in a normal state. That somewhat suggests that we are capable of so many amazing things. It's just our own minds and thoughts that limit our potentials.Change is hard, but not changing is boring. I rather have a hard life than a boring one. Hey! Great post!

You point out some key factors that some people may not consider. Failure is a part of life, and if we learn how to deal with it and use it as a learning experience, it can actually help us. Making a habit of something and sticking to it, even when you mess up, is extremely important. No excuses, we just have to brush ourselves off and keep on going. Chances are it will be worth it in the end. Great post! Irina, I love your perspective on change! You point out some key factors that some people may not consider.

It's practical, to the point, and clear. It's true, do able, and powerful. It's well written, insightful, and most of all, it's easy to feel related to it. I'm definitely bookmarking this one, and I'll re-read it every time I need to get through change.Thanks Irina, this was a great post. I loved this one. It’s practical, to the point, and clear.

I really believe in living life flexible (not meaning bend to everyone's will). The hard part is that to have that attitude you need the willingness/desire to. As you stated, you won't realize this until you fail. Yes! I really believe in living life flexible (not meaning bend to everyone’s will).

When we deconstruct change, what we are really talking about is abandoning and old comfortable structure - even if it is no longer serving us - for the new. That transition calls on us to move away from the safety of the old and embrace the fear of the unknown. And that can be very scary. So if we can help others feel a sense of safety in navigating the change, we help them overcome the fear that may be blocking them.Keep writing! As usual,Irina your wisdom comes through.
