It is crucial
that we understand
that change is not necessarily a matter of taking mindless steps because we are
frustrated about current unpleasant situations. Any meaningful change must be
approached with utmost caution and carefully thought through decisions. When we
get to the point of discontent and we begin to desire change, we should not
allow our emotions to make us throw caution to the wind. At the end of the day,
we will be responsible for every action we take and we must be ready to face
that fact squarely before we start. We have to weigh all the options before us
before we make any move. There is normally no one way to achieve any given
result, we usually have a range of options to look at before we make our
decisions. Most times, people are either too lazy, too myopic or too much in a
hurry to investigate and analyse properly before taking a decision. Change
involves a certain degree of responsibility and accountability; do not rush
into something you know very little about because you are desperate to get out
of some situation. When people don’t spend time to consider all the options
before them and anything goes wrong, they begin to look for others to blame.
Until you are ready to take responsibility for all your decisions, stay action
on the change you want to make. Do have a great weekend!
Il est essentiel que nous comprenions que le changement ne consiste pas nécessairement à prendre des mesures irréfléchies parce que nous sommes frustrés par les situations désagréables actuelles. Tout changement significatif doit être abordé avec la plus grande prudence et mûrement réfléchi dans les décisions. Quand nous arrivons au point de mécontentement et que nous commençons à désirer le changement, nous ne 
devons pas permettre à nos émotions de nous inciter à la prudence. En fin de compte, nous serons responsables de chaque action que nous entreprendrons et nous devons être prêts à faire face à ce fait carrément avant de commencer. Nous devons peser toutes les options qui s'offrent à nous avant de faire quoi que ce soit. Il n'y a normalement pas une seule façon d'atteindre un résultat donné, nous avons généralement une gamme d'options à examiner avant de prendre nos décisions. La plupart du temps, les gens sont soit trop paresseux, trop myopes ou trop pressés pour enquêter et analyser correctement avant de prendre une décision. Le changement implique un certain degré de responsabilité et de responsabilité; ne vous précipitez pas dans quelque chose que vous connaissez très peu parce que vous êtes désespéré de sortir d'une situation. Lorsque les gens ne passent pas le temps à considérer toutes les options qui se présentent à eux et que tout va mal, ils commencent à chercher les autres à blâmer. Tant que vous n'êtes pas prêt à assumer la responsabilité de toutes vos décisions, s'abstennez de prendre des dispositions sur le changement que vous souhaitez apporter. Passez un bon week-end!
make. Since change can be an enormous undertaking,
we must take time to sift through our circle of influence to see those who can
help us navigate the new territory we are charting if we intend to achieve any
success. Change should not be an emotional decision; it should be based
principally on your core values and principles. This is particularly important
information for Africans because we are very emotional people. In fact, it is
seen as arrogance when you talk about principles and these do not favor your
existing relationships. There can’t be any meaningful change if we ultimately
allow our hearts to rule our head. Keeping relationships based on emotional ties
could be our greatest hindrance to change. We have to learn to translate our
emotions to power principles that help us to see situations from a position of understanding
and knowledge. When we understand the weight and importance of change, the
decision of letting go off those who will not help us achieve it becomes a lot easier
for us to make. Do have a very pleasant day!
er autour d'eux. Le fait qu'ils ignorent le pouvoir de leur influence, ils gardent autour d'eux des gens qui n'ont rien à contribuer au changement qu'ils veulent faire. Étant donné que le changement peut être une entreprise énorme, nous devons prendre le temps de passer au crible notre cercle d'influence pour voir ceux qui peuvent nous aider à naviguer sur le nouveau territoire que nous traçons si nous avons l'intention de réussir. Le changement ne doit pas être une décision émotionnelle; il doit être basé principalement sur vos valeurs et principes fondamentaux. C'est une information particulièrement importante pour les Africains car nous sommes des gens très émotifs. En fait, cela est perçu comme de l'arrogance lorsque vous parlez de principes et ceux-ci ne favorisent pas vos relations existantes. Il ne peut y avoir de changement significatif si nous permettons finalement à notre cœur de diriger notre tête. Garder des relations basées sur des liens émotionnels pourrait être notre plus grand obstacle au changement. Nous devons apprendre à traduire nos émotions en principes de puissance qui nous aident à voir les situations à partir d'une position de compréhension et de connaissance. Lorsque nous comprenons le poids et l'importance du changement, la décision de laisser partir ceux qui ne nous aideront pas à y parvenir devient beaucoup plus facile pour nous. Passez une journée très agréable!
worth its while has a
huge cost attached to it, there is no running away from this fact. Counting the
cost as we have previously said is crucial for us to be able to adapt to the
elements of change and one of the most important thing to do is changing your
perspective. We can never overemphasis the fact that until we see things
differently, we cannot do things differently. The image you have of the change
you desire has to be clear and distinct because the change has to occur in your
perception before you can carry out the relevant actions needed for its
accomplishment. No one can continue thinking in the same way and expect the
results to be different. People desire a change in their circumstances but
refuse to do things differently and then they are frustrated when the results come
out the same way from which they are trying to change. From observation I have
seen that most public sector workers in Nigeria who try to start their own
business have problems because they transfer the nonchalant attitude they had
towards their work with government into their own businesses unconsciously. Our
mental attitude to change is more important than our actions. Once we get it
right mentally, we will be able to overcome all the challenges that will
present themselves even if they are in areas we have never tackled before. Do have
a beautiful day!
that we adapt to some new things, this is
just inevitable. It is possible to imagine the new things we will confront due
to the changes we are about to make but until we experience them we might not
know exactly how they are going to affect our lifestyle in general. Against
this backdrop, it would be best for to properly educate ourselves about the
effects the change will likely have on us so that we begin to figure out how to
adjust when we finally decide to pursue it. We might need to develop our people
skills to deal with those we will meet, talk to those who have experience in
the area we are about to make change or even take some courses to enable us get
a grip of where we are going to help us tackle the challenges we are going to
face. The most common mistake people make when they are about to make changes
is that they take action without making an effort to understand the ramifications
of the journey on which they embarking. Plunging without knowing the depth and
what exists in those waters is foolishness and could be highly regrettable.
Presently we even have nations who have demanded change without a proper
understanding and they are now going round in circles, where this will take
them is still unknown to them and to observers. Change should help us become
better and more productive instead of bringing us into the captivity of monotony
and mediocrity. Change is good only to the degree that we understand what it
takes to achieve what we want. Do have a great week!
