Colors of Change
As the seasons change, a natural change occurs in the color of the leaves. Our view and feelings of change can be represented by these colors:

Feeling blue                sad about change
Feeling red                  angry about change
Feeling green              growing with change
Feeling yellow             excited about change
Feeling orange            confusion about change
Feeling black               fear of change


Discussion of Change
Companies experience significant changes due to mergers, product changes, economic issues, competition, changes in their own policies and procedures, etc.

Individuals can experience significant changes such as a career move, a loss, an illness, a change in personal relationships, a move to another part of the country, etc.

Change can be difficult due to uncertainty about the future. Change can be scary, bring struggle, challenges, shifting of mental perception, mind scrambling, emotional shock, and can be life altering. 
Exercise
1.      Are you considering initiating a change or is a change being thrust on you?
2.      What would be your goal be in initiating any changes in your life in the next year? 
3.      Think of an experience or event in the last year that has been an important change in your life.
 
As a coach, I can help you process the changes you are going through and help you see the benefits of those changes. Call me 816-213-0125.

 
Just like the seasons, 
people have the ability to change.
