CHANGE gives more people stress than anything else. Change causes stress and stress kills. Here is what you need to know about change. Change is inevitable. Change is the only constant in the Universe. Change is going come! Here is how you reduce and maybe eliminate the stress.

Realize that change is going to come.

Be prepared for the change

Initiate the change yourself!

On your job for example, if you have a comfortable seat and desk location with a great boss, realize that the company may move to Smalltown, USA. And if you want that job you may have to move at your own expense. (It could happed-Realize a change will come someday)

On your job if new computers arrive or if new data equipment shows up, get a manual first and learn how to operate the new equipment. Be the first to volunteer to go to training.(Prepare for the Change)

If you have mastered the tasks on your job and do them with your eyes closed, and now very easy, Ask for a new job that you haven't mastered. Initiate the change yourself! Most will stay on the old job that means NO GROWTH. Here is the key. See change not as change but rather as GROWTH. CHANGE causes stress, stress kills. See CHANGE as GROWTH, growth is good. GROWTH is satisfying

To many times I have queried teachers about the outdated Windows software

Many have responded " I am going to retire in three years I don't intend to learn
anything new.
TO TEACH STUDENTS TO BE LIFELONG LEARNERS SHOULDN'T… Continue
