During times of change, we have greater access to our inner selves, and the opportunity to learn how to use it. New decisions must be made, and new answers to one's problems need to be found. At the same time, change is stressful, Friends and family can only take you so far.
Change by its nature increases uncertainty, leads to anxiety and makes decision-making more difficult. It also attracts new relationships, for better or worse. For instance, making a trip to the corner bar, or talking to someone who has a vested interest in the outcome of your situation may provide temporary relief but in the long run, does it help you make positive change?
Finding safe people who can listen to you and help you to make sense of your situation really can help. These could include mentors, therapists, a spiritual counselor, attorney or other professional who specialize in helping you carry out the changes you know you want to make. Talk to someone new today and remember - you don't have to do it all alone!
