When we consider the dictionary definition of transformation we find words like – change in form, appearance, nature or character. The operative word here is change. Transformation is the process of change across form – or from one form to another.

What you experienced yesterday is gone because the world changes every day. People change. Weather changes. Relationships change. Prices change. Emotions change. Circumstances change. Practices change. Everything changes.

Everything is changing, is in motion and transforms every second. And this is important because this is the only way growth and breakthroughs can really happen.

When you ask yourself the question – is change desirable? I’m sure you will say, yes. And yet when asked do you find change easy the answer will probably a little different. Why is it that most of us at some level hate change? When everything is going well, when we can pay our bills on time, when the kids are doing well in school, when our relationships are happy, when the practice is booming, people getting great results, the team is on-song the last thing we want is to transform anything. But change and the transformation that is associated with it is unavoidable.

We have two choices when it comes to transformation – either move forward and engage it (no matter how terrifying this may be) or resist it, be caught on your back foot and be left behind.

 

We are constantly changing – every breath – every thought is a unique phenomena and a new moment that brings with it new energy, insights, awareness, possibility and aliveness. Likewise, if we are in a downward spiral this change brings consolidation, compaction, rigidity, inflexibility and deathliness.

Dangerous Idea

What areas of your practice do you think that you are on the verge of or in the process of transformation and which areas are you resisting transformation?

What changes do you know have your name on them?

What areas are calling out to you?

Are there team members who are working their way out of the team?

Are there practice members who need to be called into line around their agreements with you?

Are there practice members who need to be dismissed – freed up to find their higher good elsewhere?

Consider these questions and commit to engaging with them this week.
