Forward Movement

We will never arrive at a given destination if we are unwilling to move. Only those who devote themselves to growth, will in fact grow in the direction they desire. Because I am never content to stay in the same place, when my turn came to read my non-stop-free-flow-writing in class, I pushed past my comfort zone and took the leap.

I am a futuristic person, my natural bent and one of my strengths is that I look toward the future. It's easy for me to envision the future as if it were projected on a wall. And being an activator, I am the one who is usually early for a meeting, saying "Are we ready to start?" I am always ready to take action, because it is the main ingredient necessary to bring about change and propel me forward.

Some are data and analysis driven. I certainly need those detail oriented people on my team, like my sweet husband, but I am all about action. That can be very frustrating if you don't want your world to be shuffled out of the same old routine. But for those who want more out of life and are willing to discover the possibilities it can be invigorating.

I didn't necessarily savor the critique of my precious words in writing class, but instantly took the information, made the adjustments and felt empowered with a new key to improve my writing skills. On my own I couldn't decipher my fondness and over use of metaphors, but the team, as it were helped me to make this advancement.

I am ecstatic about the forward motion a new year brings. There is a great opportunity to set into place room for growth, like a class, tele-conference, workshop, personal coaching, counseling, a mastermind group or whatever you can dream up to move you closer to where you want to be. Why not start the new year out with your own leap?
