ABCD of Change

Here's the ABCD for making personal change happen:

A: Awareness. Identify what you would like to change in yourself.

B: Belief. Recognise & challenge the belief(s) holding you back. For example,
believing 'I can't change', 'It's too difficult.'

C: Commitment. 'I'll try' isn't good enough. Work out an effective action plan,
as well as things you will do to sustain the commitment.

D: Discipline. Establish the purpose, why this change is important. Then with
love & enthusiasm you'll sustain the discipline to make the change happen.

Your Voice

Ever wondered how you're able to hear the sound of the triangle amongst the many instruments in the orchestra? Just because the instrument itself may appear tiny and insignificant in comparison to a cello, tuba, or a kettle drum, there is nothing that stops the clear, pure 'voice' of the triangle from being heard! So, the next time you start comparing yourself to others, stop! Reinforce your self confidence and let your voice be heard.
