Making Changes

I know the newsletters have been a little sporadic lately. I have been going thru some changes and sometime with changes you get off schedule. Have you made a change and then had a moment of clarity when you relize that everything seemed to be falling into place? It could be a change as simple as taking a new route to work that seems to take less time: or visiting a different Starbucks where you happen to pick up a new client unexpectedly. It could be a big change such as a divorce or change in career. No matter what the change is, you know the change is right if a sense of peace comes over you. When you are confronted with change, it's okay to stay in a waiting place, but only for a moment or two. For it's only when you truly make a decision that your'e set free--free to be all God intended you to be.

Welcome or not we will have several of these "change moments" throughout our lives. I certainly had one with after a year of "trying" to decide whether or not to get a divorce; I finally made a decision to proceed. After I had made that very difficult decision, I felt relaxed and at peace. I knew then that it was the right move for me. Talk about things falling into place; even my business skyrocketed. While I was in that waiting place of indecision, though, you may remember that my writings were quite sparse.

That brings me to my current lack of writing. I am again facing huge changes both personally and professionally; and while I was contemplating; waiting and thinking, I was a bit distracted. But now I have made a decision! It's time for another move. I want to change the energy around me, have you felt that way too? Not only did I decide to move, I also decided that it should happen by the end of the month. So, I've been busy looking for a new place and packing to move. And I feel good about it!

Making that decision led to some breakthroughs with Image Empowering, too. We decided to expand our services to offer image coaching - a service that doesn't just "show" women how to dress but really works with them on developping their personal style: something that fits their personality, comfort level and objectives. This new service is called "THE STYLE WITHIN". It's my hope that this new service will be valuable AND fun for all who participate. I truly believe that my ability to make this addition to my business is directly tied to freeing my mind after making that decision to move. Decision does lead to clarity!

So are there any unmade decisions weighing heavily on you? What's stopping you from making them? If you knew that a happier you, more success, better health, and a more joy-filled life was on the other side of the decision, would you make it? On the other side of every decision is something good. even if it's just the realization that you needed to have choosen option B. You'll never know, though, if you never take the step to decide.

And, if you need a friend to talk to or just want to share, I'm always here.

Blessings

Wishing you peace, love, and joy in your life :)
