Working with people this week, there seemed to be a theme about moving forward, growth and reaching one’s goals. And that theme was the chaos that ensues when change happens. Chaos, let’s be real, isn’t something that is easy to live with. And yet the universe has chaos as part of our journey should we want to change and grow.
The majority of people don’t like chaos. In fact, I think I’m one of them. Like finger nails on a chalk board, chaos is uncomfortable. But that is the price that life demands if we want to change. It just is.
Unfortunately for this world of ours, most people will do anything to avoid chaos in their lives. Yes they want more, yes they want better BUT no thanks, they don’t want to change and the chaos that accompanies change.
And so they settle for the status quo. Life isn’t great but it’s not that bad. I have had people tell me that their life was “bla”, like food without spice. And they just went through the motions. But at least there wasn’t any chaos. And that’s the tragedy.
Life is a journey. It’s not the destination, or goal, that counts, but the journey. But if you have no goal, then you are just drifting and that is life’s real tragedy.
In the spring of this year, I set a goal to catch a 60″ fish this summer. Well, as I put my boat to bed for the winter, I didn’t reach my stated goal. But boy, did I have fun trying.
