| SPEED AND DIRECTION MAKE THE DIFFERENCE |
VELOCITY
You may or not remember from math classes that VELOCITY is the speed
and direction an object is moving. For
my brain it is a fairly complicated mathematic equation, but the essence of
VELOCITY is important in helping you understand the work of change. To have constant VELOCITY is to maintain
constant speed and direction. The
operative word here is constant. It is
impossible when we you are initiating a change to maintain constant speed and
direction. For example, think about how
many times you have set out to change your eating patterns and then found
yourself invited to a party where you will be tempted with pretty food not on
your list. That example is called a
curve in mathematical language. Thus
VELOCITY changes because the speed to negotiated the curve decreases and the
direction changes. What is really
important for you to grasp is that once the curve is negotiated the speed
accelerates to handle the adjustment that must be made to navigate the curve
safely. You will need to increase your
desire to change when curves are coming at you.
Thus, when you are tempted to stay the same, regress, or toss your important
decision to the wind, increase your speed in order that the VELOCITY (determination)
for change accelerates. Have a plan to
stick to your new goal even when the road to change has many curves, some
expected and many unexpected. Do not let
the curves slow you down. Maintain your VELOCITY by using pre-planning to
negotiate difficult choices. VELLOCITY
is necessary for change. Use it wisely.
