Change fixes the past. Transformation creates the future.
“A butterfly is a transformation, not a better caterpillar."
Hello, Friend!
If you have ever felt stuck, trapped, or unable to reach your goals, there may be a limiting belief that shows up in your thinking and then in your results or lack of results. So, you may find yourself longing for things to change and wondering how to change them. Perhaps you have even tried changing things.
But, right now, I encourage you to consider the difference between change and transformation and then DECIDE whether you want to CHANGE or TRANSFORM Change FIXES the past. Transformation CREATES the future.
For starters, the chances of getting what we want increase as we become clearer about what we want. Do you want a better version of NOW or SOMETHING ENTIRELY NEW? Both paths are difficult and produce rewards. So of course you want to choose wisely.
CHANGE requires becoming familiar with the current situation, and working to make things better, faster, cheaper, or some other “er” word. The past is the fundamental reference point and actions are intended to alter what already happened. The success of a CHANGE initiative is judged by efficiencies and economies that are realized at the end of your effort, compared with when you started. When you choose CHANGE, your future is really a reconditioned or improved version of the past.
TRANSFORMATION is an assertion that our actions today create our future tomorrow. The future can be described and realized when you free yourself from constraints of the past. In transformation, you design your future and invent ways to bring it about. Transformation doesn’t describe the future by referencing the past (better, faster, or cheaper); it births a future that is entirely new. Like CHANGE, TRANSFORMATION also begins with firmly grasping the current state of affairs — the "As Is" of the CORE PRIME. Without an intimate understanding of our As Is, we’re delusional about the future from the outset.
When you choose the path of TRANSFORMATION, it becomes easier to leave the past behind after thoroughly considering the As Is. You permit yourselves to envision the future freely; you make specific promises, with full INTEGRITY, about how things shall be. You take action to ensure that you live into your declarations about the future.
A butterfly is a transformation, not a better caterpillar.
IN ACTION In CHANGE mode, the desire to improve the past directs what we do. The past sets boundaries and constrains possibilities. CHANGE makes the system better. In TRANSFORMATION mode, the future directs your actions and only the limits of imagination and courage constrain possibilities. TRANSFORMATION causes new systems to emerge." ~ theprimes.com
To serve, delight, assist and support you, here is a link to the December 7th, 2016, Ignite YOUR Dreams!™ Program Call Recording. I am certain you will find this content rich Teleconfernce extremely beneficial. It is packed with amazing information about Change, Changing Your Thinking, and Standing Guard at the Portal of Your Mind. During the Teleconference we begin the study of one of James Allens's greatest works, "As a Man Thinketh" which deals with the power of thought, and particularly with the use and application of thought to be happy and fulfilled. Allen made the book simple, and the concepts easy to grasp and the methods easy to put into practice. It shows how, in his own thought-world, each man holds the key to every condition, good or bad, that enters into his life, and that, by working patiently and intelligently upon his thoughts, he may remake his life, and transform his circumstances. Allen himself described the book as "a book on the power and right application of thought."
I first read this wonderful, helpful book back in 1979 along with a few other great books by the worlds leading experts in the Human Potential Movement and I have gone back to it many times over the years. It is one of the books that you want to have in your library so that you can use it again and again to help you with "right thinking" and to "stand guard at the portal of your mind".
