“Every success story is a tale of constant adaptation, revision and change.” – Richard Branson

Change can definitely be said…

to be one of the most difficult challenges of life…right up there with moving, taxes and death.

The good news is that it’s possible — for everyone, in any situation, at any time.

The bad news is that it generally requires a big enough reason to make the choice to change, a heavy enough pound (or more) of flesh to be given if we don’t.

Often, it’s only after the flesh has been taken that the real cost of resistance to change is realized.

However, it’s possible to foment a crisis, when necessary, to make required changes.

The word “foment” means to instigate or foster, such as when one creates a rebellion.

Perhaps we don’t learn the art of making up crises until we’re forced to develop that ability…but it’s an important life skill to nurture.

So, just for the sake of a good workout — and for building a muscle you may not utilize as much as others — in what area of life could you foment a crisis for yourself today…to make an overdue and necessary change?

Got enough reason to change?

“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” – Leo Tolstoy
