All the Reasons We Resist Change

The theme of the month at DASHA® is Pushing Boundaries, perfect not only for the start of the new year, but also for Martin Luther King, Jr., who encouraged Americans to push past their own unjust racial boundaries and history to embrace everyone, regardless of color.

We know you have your own dreams of things you want to accomplish. The only person stopping yourself from moving forward is you; just like the only person who can move you forward is that same person, you. Here are all of the reasons we resist change:

It’s easier. Where you’re at now is comfortable, safe, known. Change is unknown and has the unpredictability factor. Is this so bad? What if change is actually good?

Old patterns are safe. It’s hard to do something new. It takes more time, more energy, and something might go wrong. But here’s the thing. Something might go right – it might go really right, as in effect others areas of your life in a really positive way – you know, that whole chain reaction thing.

You’re worried about what others might think. Are you not getting that divorce because you don’t want others to see you “fail” and regret they attended your wedding all those years ago? What if those people just want you to be happy? Are you not going back to school because you think others will think you’re too old? How about they’re secretly wishing they had the guts to do the same thing? Stop worrying so much. Chances are no one is thinking about you and your decisions as much as you think they are, and if something negative happens (and it probably won’t), well then, that person worth the investment of your time.

Because what if you’re successful? Yes, change can yield great results – greater happiness, greater health, greater money, greater relationships. And if you’re successful, well, you’re going to have to deal with the consequences of that success, which is much more fun that staying put. Don’t you want to have more fun?
