How can you say that I haven't changed. Have you never seen a sunrise? The dreary, dark colors slowly merging into golden rays and deep ruby red. How can you say that beauty doesn't come with time? Has our time together meant nothing too you? Are you still the sun who refuses to set because darkness will cover you? But dear, don't you know what happens next? -recklesssensation

#leadership #dealingwithchange Humans are hard wired to choose cognitive ease over strain, to look for the familiar and find comfort in it. Instead of having the discipline to rigorously challenge assumptions leaders may instead associate familiarity with past experience, give it more power than is warranted and potentially create bias in their thinking. When this inherent human tendency to seek familiarity instead of truth surfaces in the uncertain, turbulent times, leaders can be tempted to go for the quick fix. Over-reliance on expertise does not work when faced with the unknown or a crisis; in fact, trying to use expertise in a crisis will surely impede our ability to see what is actually happening. When it is the leader's default position to make decisions solely based on knowledge and past experience objectivity will be lacking and most likely the input of others will be ignored. Henry Mintzberg famously said, “Setting oneself on a pre-determined course in unknown waters is the perfect way to sail into an iceberg." What can help in uncertainty? Letting go of relying on what we know as the only solution. (at Venice, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5FtWLQB5S_/?igshid=hs0r3f30dqt4

Mini Meditation ~ Dealing with Change
You can complain about change or deal with it the best you can. Hint: Complaining is not the best deal.

And just when we think we have it all figured out life forces change on us. I have a good friend who hates change. He does not process change well at all. Even a change in a favorite restaurant menu makes him unhappy. Some of us have had great loss and change in life. Perhaps our childhood was full of different schools, homes, cities, friends. We learn to roll with change even expect it and sometimes really like it. Everyone is different and how they process change takes place on a different level. These are times of great change all around us. This is a week of changing energy for some people. They may feel the need to take control of their life in a bigger way. This may be the time we bring forth change in a dynamic way. Relationships could change. Strong people will feel great strength and could be overbearing to others. If you don't process change well then make sure you do things that bring comfort and security to your existence. Our path is guided and perhaps those who have navigated great change in life will be in the position to lead the way. Not knowing which direction life will take us we need a strong anchor. When we loose direction during life change we can get back on course. I agree with you for positive change in your life. No matter what change is taking place you will find your perfect place of happiness. And so it is..Blessings!!xoxo #dailydosefromdebra #intuitiveguidance #angelicwisdom #powerfulweek #changes#strong#dealingwithchange #dealingwithchallenges #leobirthdays

2014: Moving to New York
2014 began, for me, in a local newsroom in Pennsylvania; and with a roommate very dear to me: my Grammy.
My life was filled to the brim with strong family relationships and friendships; but, my dream of living in New York City incessantly beckoned. So, I continued to apply for jobs in that great big city and hoped for the best.
A winter of bitter cold and snowstorms prompted an escape to Southern California to visit family and friends -- a much needed escape.
My cousin, Matt Connor and I, during a sunset dog walk. February 22, 2014
I didn't realize how needed that escape was until Matt and his girlfriend, Liz, dropped me off at the airport and tears filled my eyes beneath my sunglasses...
I was so upset that even the TSA official checking my bag said, "It's okay, hunny, you'll be back soon enough!" (As if I was on my way back to college...)
I mean, I couldn't be crying just because I love sunshine and warmth that much, right?
My plane ride back to Philadelphia was filled with much reflection AND the conclusion that I needed a change.
Just two weeks later I mysteriously got an email inquiring if I was still interested in interviewing for a position at the Institute of International Education. I applied for the positon nearly two months prior and to be honest, forgot I had.
Three weeks later and what I must admit was a stellar final in-person interview in NYC, I had an offer!
And, two crazy weeks later, I moved to NYC!
A quote I find myself revisiting when life gets chaotic.
The move, in itself, was only a part of the choas of 2014; but to me, it was beautiful chaos.
I snatched up almost every invitation to explore my new city; endeavors certainly made easier by the warmth of spring and summer, and an ethereal energy this city seems to posses.

These are just a few of the NYC highlights of this past, incredible, chaotic year; not to mention numerous work trips -- Atlanta, GA, Boston, MA, State College, PA, Albuquerque, NM, Philadelphia, PA and four trips to Washington, D.C.!
As i look forward to changes, some growing up, and love to come in 2015; I can't help but first look back to the year when my childhood dreams of living in New York City came true; and the anthem I kept returning to this past year by The Avett Brothers.
"One foot in and one foot back
But it don't pay, to live like that...
Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn take me in, Are you aware the shape I'm in?"
What was your 2014 anthem?
