Is change good, bad, or something else entirely?

Looking back on some of the major changes in your life, there were probably times when you welcomed change with open arms, eager to discover whatever lay ahead for you. There have likely been a few occasions when instead of welcoming change, you resisted and ran from it — even when you knew change of some sort was unavoidable or perhaps very much needed.
 
Part of what makes change so unnerving is its inherent unpredictability. Even a minor change in life can be an intense experience that destabilizes us and leaves us feeling disoriented. No matter how much you try to plan and prepare for it, change has the potential to wind up encompassing more than you bargained for.

You're tired of how things are going in your life and ready for a change.  Maybe you want to eat better, exercise more, and lose weight.  Maybe you want to get more organized.  Maybe you want to improve an important relationship; or perhaps start a new one.  Maybe you're looking for more meaning in your life, and a purpose you can truly get excited about.
 
Whatever it is, you think about it constantly and even visualize it, yet nothing happens.  Nothing changes and each day feels just like the one before.  Meanwhile, you find your hope and enthusiasm gradually draining away.
