Just like infants learn to walk after a long period of crawling, so too, are we going to learn how to take baby steps in creating change in our adult lives.  The interesting thing about crawling is probably the unique perspective it provides…a view of the world from the ground up!   It is a time when we are literally grounded.  Not for long though, for each day we become one step closer to walking.

Although learning to walk comes with many exciting moments, there are times that will be challenging and discouraging.  For we will stumble.  We will trip.  And we will, of course, take some falls.  It is from the process itself that we will grow.  We will learn to stand on our own two feet. 

Creating change in our adult lives will come much like the way we took those first steps as a baby.  Amongst the breakthroughs, there will be set backs.  It takes practice.  And practice requires a time commitment.   Drawing upon all our resources, we need to focus on how to create real change.  Everyday provides us with the opportunity to begin anew.

Begin by setting time aside each day or week. This time will be used for exploring all the possibilities…looking at what is right there in our lives.  The things already present that we can potentially act on.  Looking at our lives from the ground up and from the outside in…inward at ourselves.  We will search!  Regularly!!

Remember, it is a process.  Before we  can walk the walk….

We must take “baby steps.”
