Change is inevitable. And yet, it’s very easy to get caught up in change and let it pull you along, like a stick in a river being swept away by the current. Instead of making conscious choices, one day you discover that you’re living a life shaped primarily by change rather than by choice.....
SO i think there are Steps for Taking Control of the Changes in Your Life
1. Know What doYou Want.
It’s just common sense that if you don’t know what you want, you don’t stand much of a chance of getting it. Take some time to really think about this. It may be something as specific as a particular position in a particular firm, or as vague as a wish to live in a general region, doing a general kind of work. Sometimes, if you’re not sure of what you want, it’s easier to look at what isn’t working for you in your current life. This can give you a place to start looking for what would make you happier.
2. Know Why You Want It.
Now that you know the “what,” it’s time to work on the “why.” This is important for two reasons. First, knowing why you want something will prevent you from getting what you want in a way that doesn’t actually suit your needs. (If you want to live in the tropics so you can hit the beach every day, it won’t do you any good to move to a land-locked tropical location.) Second, knowing why gives you options if the most obvious routes to satisfying your desires are blocked. As above, it’s sometimes easier to determine why you want something by laying out why you don’t like about what you currently have.
3. Quality Your Choices.
When change of curs - a career change, health issues, an inheritance, etc. - rate your options through the lens of the “what” and “why” above. This is often harder than it first appears. A great career move may seem like an obvious “yes,” until you pick it apart and realize it takes you further away from your desire to work with people in need and involves a lot of travel, which you loathe. A job that involves a pay cut and a loss of social status may actually prove to be far and away the best choice, if it’s a better fit for your goals. Without a clear vision of what you want and why, however, you could easily be persuaded to take a better-looking offer that is entirely unsuited to your needs
