Fun-damental to Change

Fundamentals of change

Imagine for a moment that you were given a choice about how you could face your worst idea of change. Whoa! Hang on a minute. You don't need to imagine this - it's real. You do have a choice. Why choose to make your 'change' a dark and scary place that you fear to walk through when you could choose to turn it into a funfair? Ok, so I am asking you to use your imagination a little bit!

I would choose a funfair over that dark, scary place any day - wouldn't you? If you know you are facing a change ask yourself "How can I deal with this change AND have fun?" or "How can I deal with this change AND learn something new?" The answer does not come easily - this is hard work. In asking and answering this kind of question you are choosing a different experience of the change, instead of going into it blindly and expecting the worst.

Fundamental tip: find the fun in the change you are expecting. Make a funfair of it; lots to explore, lots to learn, some real fear - but a long lasting memory that you would buy a ticket to experience again.
