Do you feel stuck, trapped, weighed down, uninspired?

If so, chances are you are ready to move on to the next stage of your life.

What you’ll find here is a common sense approach to moving towards the next phase of your life. Like so many things in life, these are things we all know, but seem to forget, or lose track of in the busy-ness of life.

This is my working framework for embracing change in my life. This approach is simple by design. You can apply it in a day, a month, or a year. The same approach can be applied to any dimension of your life.

Here is one way to think about the different dimensions of your life:

• the body
• physical space
• the mind
• social environment
• spiritual dimension

The hard thing for some of us to accept is that there is no one silver bullet to kill all of life’s problems. Although many in the self help industry get rich off of this mind set, it is up to each of us to recognize the cycles of life, and to not only accept, but embrace them!

To meet this ever evolving need, this approach is iterative. The good news is that it gets easier each time you do it.

I’ll introduce the approach here, and continue to explore these themes in the coming days with some concrete scenarios and examples.

5 Stepping Stones to the Next Phase

1. Choose - only you can change you… the first and most important step is the decision to embrace change and to grow your life.
2. Make room for the new - clean house, let go, give away, embrace emptiness, detox your system.
3. Be & Allow - pray, be with it, meditate, walk.
4. Accept & Receive - be in the flow of life, pay attention, watch as doors open and opportunities present themselves.
5. Express gratitude - say thank you… morning, noon and night!

Here’s a visual representation of these steps:

This is my current integration of everything I am learning. It is not a one size fits all kind of model. But if it helps or works for you - wonderful!

If this framework resonates with you, check back over the coming weeks. I will be exploring these five stepping stones in more depth across the different dimensions.
