David Guerra’s Daily Challenge for Wednesday February 8, 2017

You can run with change or against it

Keeping with the theme of change. Today, I want to talk about running with change. There will be times that change will give you a long warning before it happens. You’ve heard the old adage “see the writing on the wall” when you know there is writing on the wall that change is coming then it is up to you to decide whether you want to actually see it and do something about it or not.

You can ignore it and blindly see yourself immune from the oncoming change. Folks, when change comes no one is immune to it. It cannot be ignored. When you see the writing on the wall, is the time for you to act. Of course you can run with change and take the necessary actions to address the issues once change is put into play or you can run against it and scramble when change occurs.

See the writing on the wall. It is always there and it will always be there.

David Guerra’s Daily Challenge for Tuesday February 7, 2017

How you face the change is up to you.

As we talked about constant change there is a little more left to go deeper into it.

There is a time known as the “transition period” that occurs during “between where you were and where you are going”. It can be painful and is expected on your journey of finding purpose of the change and your purpose after the change.

Please remember and recognize that there is purpose in the transition, in the pain, or in the process of change.

As you go through the change each step you take is helping you realize who you are and what you will become after the change has occurred. It is at this time that you have to decide whether you go in the direction of regret or resist, or turn inward and embrace the journey of change both during and after.

Every one of has done it and we will do it again. What we do and how we do it when we face change is purely up to us.

On Being Genuine

Now is the time to be more than who you are. Being more is as important as eating or breathing is to the human body.  Currently, you are who you are and the sooner you understand that you have to grow to be a better individual, the sooner you can grow beyond who you are. Grow beyond who you are?

Being genuine is the only way to grow beyond who you currently are.

To grow as an individual you can only do so as an individual. However, you must take certain precautions so as not to come across inauthentic or disingenuous.

While it may be a slippery slope do your best to not make it a competition. We are all taught that you have to be the best. You have to be number one. Excessive competitiveness does nothing but bring you down when you win and you resent those who do win. Be careful.

Let go of what other people say or expect. Just be yourself. You want to be genuine, the real deal then you cannot be when you are at the mercy of others. When others tell you you should do this or say that then you are nothing but a follower. Remember you are the only person that gets to say who you are. So be that person. While the “cool” kids are doing what the “cool” kids do when it is all said and done they are nothing but followers. Remember that.

Being genuine means, you are not following anyone but blazing your own trail. Then those that want to be with you will find a way to be near you and they will do so because you are genuine in your intents and actions. Trust the process and most of all trust yourself.

Do not force it. Forcing yourself to be genuine well that does come shining through o anyone and everyone. So do not force it.

All in all, just be yourself.
