 The
ONE Constant in the Universeby Scott Jeffrey Have you ever heard the story of the great king? In his later years, he began feeling great inner turmoil and perhaps his own mortality. The king called forth a powerful wizard to fashion him a magical amulet that would empower him to deal with any situation. He desired something that would alleviate suffering and provide great wisdom and perspective. Only a few days later, the wise wizard returned to the king and presented him with a small box. The king opened the box and took out a simple gold ring. Feeling as though the wizard had played him for a fool, he examined the ring more carefully. Upon discovering and reading the inscription on the ring, the great king smiled, stood up and bowed to the wise wizard. What was inscribed on the ring? The words: “And this too shall pass.” Whether it’s a difficult situation, an unfamiliar experience or even something blissfully happy ... it will pass. There is only ONE constant in the universe -- change. Knowing this we have two choices: We can accept and embrace change, or we can resist and fight change and face the consequences. When we resist change, we stop our evolutionary progress. We confine our overall experience to a limited bubble, hindering our ability to learn new things. In fact, the “new” is defined by constant change; by resisting change, we miss out on all the exciting, fun, and magical experiences the “new” represents. Resisting change also inhibits our ability to become great leaders. Those that fight change are confined to lives as followers because a fundamental role of leaders is to influence positive change. Resistors of change can’t have much fun either, since one of our basic human needs is variety, something a person who fears change will inherently avoid. And what about those who embrace change with open arms? These people are having all the fun. They are the leaders of each generation who boldly progress forward -- blazing new frontiers, trying new things, failing often, but constantly charging ahead. Although an embracer of change may flinch initially when the “new” presents itself, he quickly acknowledges his primal fear and lunges forward. These people are constantly learning and growing; their abilities to solve problems quickly are a result of having the flexibility to alter their point of view. A very simple, yet powerful three-step process can help you embrace positive change. This little strategy can transform your business practices and every other area of your life: 1) Try lots of stuff. 2) Keep what works. 3) Discard the rest. Stay open to change and be prepared to embrace the “new” when it’s appropriate. With resilient power, you will begin to chart your course through the great abyss of unknown exploration. What an incredibly fun life adventure!
