Personal Development - Four Stages Of Life - Which Stage Are You In?
By Coach Scott Black on Jun 26, 2010 | In Announcements, Tip Of The day | 1 comment »
In this life we each strive for something bigger and better. But for most of us, becoming a success is elusive. That "golden ring" seems to be just out of reach for most people. And why is this?
There are many teachings on this to be sure but if I had to boil it down to two words then here it is: Decide & Commit
Your life, your mental state, your attitude can not and will not change until you make a decision to change. But sadly many who do "decide" often fail to make a complete change. This "failure" usually comes down to lack of commitment. Committing to your task to your goals no matter what fires or what storms come your way is key to becoming that which you are looking to become. So, what does this have to do with the stages of life that we go through? ALLOT!
You see most of us live in the Survival mode but we are always right on the edge of Crisis. And unfortunately there is a fine line between survival and crisis. Now the sad part of this is that when we are in these two stages we are predominately working in the space of being "ugly", "petty", "small", "weak", "whiny" and "angry". But there is good news!
The distance between the next stage of Success and survival is the same distance that is between survival and crisis. But to get there you MUST make a Decision to change your life, to get out of the vicious cycle of constant battle between crisis and just surviving. Be cheerful to know that when you reach for success that things start to chage. You will now start to operate in the space of being and feeling; inspirational, growing, stretching and learning. This is a much needed change over the drama of crisis to be sure!
And then there is Significance - Significance is Life Changing - Significance will last well beyond your life - Significance is the stuff of Legacy of impacting the world and helping others. In fact it is likely that you will not reach Significance if "it is all about you". So, if you want to build a legacy, if you want to impact the world, if you want to change the lives of others and if you want long lasting positive change in your life then make the decision to change, make the decision to do something for someone else. When you do, the world will respond. “They” (the world) can tell the difference in your energy if you are trying to make a buck or if you are trying to help them.
Now please note that most people need a STRONG "Internal Reason" to become a person of Significance. Because in this phase you will likely see more storms then you ever have in your life. You will need that “reason”, that “guiding light”, that “strong vision” to guide you through the night and through the storms to come.
So the questions are: What stage are you in now & What stage do you want to be in?
We have a better way! Do you?
My wish for you is that you will become a Significant Life Changer
