Growth

Isn't it normal that we want more? We may want more money, more free time, more love or more vacations.

Each one of us have our reasons for wanting these things. Did you ever wonder why some people get more of what they want while we struggle with less sometimes.

Researching emotions, I discovered a fantastic equation that puts growth into a new perspective


Growth = Change - Resistance


If we want more of anything in our lives, we're searching for growth. Growth requires change. Sustainable change requires commitment. Commitment needs us to change our thinking. 

The last variable of the equation has to do with resistance. That little voice that spews out negativity, skepticism, cynicism or anything else that slows us down is part of this resistance. Resistances could be anything from limiting beliefs, stubbornness, to inability to see someone else's perspective. We need to go into change with a completely open, positive frame of mind.
