ONE CHANGE CAN BE LIFE-CHANGING BY ALLIE TRENKAMP

Creativity comes from change. I’ve learned self-reflection is a humbling process. It's essential to find out why we think, say, and do certain things… then better ourselves. Self-reflection can bring out parts of us that we didn’t even know existed. I think we must stop taking the easy route and search for a new route. We can’t grow in our comfort zone. It’s important we start being comfortable with feeling uncomfortable. “Change is painful, but nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don't belong.”-Mandy Hale. It takes great courage to change and we have to be strong and brave to do it, because no one is going to do it for us. If we keep going down the same path it will lead to the same results. Myself and others often get stuck in a routine, and with routine, people tend to get stuck in patterned forms of thoughts. So, what I’ve learned and my advice to others is slowly make change in your life and the outcome of it might just be life-changing.
