Transformational Change

1.Recognizing a significant problem
2.Confronting it intensely
3.Finding a solution,
4.integrating a new perspective and a new set of assumptions into your life pattern.
Recognizing a significant problem basically is saying I need a better job so you get a better education to obtain that job. Or one that shops too much recognizes they don’t have money to pay bills because they shop too much. Confronting it intensely means to me once one has recognized the issues now you must face the fact you have a problem with all seriousness. Once one has achieved and confronted the problem next come finding a solution. For example the one who shops too much at this point now they must see a financial planner or come up with their own financial budget. Now comes the point of integrating a new perspective and a new set of assumptions into their life pattern. Now that she has came up with a budget now she has to implement into her life and make it work for her to achieve maximum financial goals.
In my own experience of transformational change we’ll use my life from 18 to now. When I was young I had no direction in life I just wanted to do something not even knowing what. As I joined the Army I still didn’t have too much of an idea of what I wanted to do in life. I was just there because it paid the bills at first and gave me a place to live. I recognized that I still had a problem of not knowing what I wanted to do with my life. It was until I was in Iraq and I had to confront the fact that I didn’t want to always put my life in danger to make a living and support my family so I started planning intensely on finding a solution to my problem. As you now in life there are no easy fixes so I ended up going back to Iraq 4 more times before I came up with a solution. The solution I found was early retirement with all benefits go back to school to get my business degree. So now I had to integrate my new perceptive into my life plans. I put all my plans

    I guess what changed my way, was when I moved out of my parents house. It completely changed me, and was a huge step towards my education and work ethic.

There are so many things you need to do to maintain a house. It was hard at first but with time it became easier, and easier. It made me want to accomplish better things in life.…

    The Stages of Change models shows that most people display change gradually starting from being unaware of a change needed or being unwilling to make a change (precontemplation stage) to considering a change (contemplation stage). At the contemplation stage a person will show willingness and open minded behavior that allows the necessary steps for change to take place. During this long process relapses may take place but to be considered part of the changing processing and not overshadow the growth that has been achieved, and to know that eventually the change becomes permanent.…

    There is a very thin line between the person who you were and the person that you are right now. As humans, we experience millions of events that can affect and change our perspective on aspects throughout the course of our lives. Similar to caterpillars, we cannot be innocent and childish forever. There is a time for everybody to transform into something beautiful, and everybody’s time is different. Change can be good or bad, but most importantly, change helps us grow and become the people we were meant to be. How are we supposed to mature and enjoy our lives if we cannot accept the differences that life presents? For many people, metamorphosing is difficult because sometimes it can be a challenge to let go of something that was always a part of ourselves, such as letting go of a teddy bear, or a blanket, but for other people, it can be almost instantaneous.…

    "Change" is what I am determined to aim for since I have begun my college career. It has led me to steer down a different path than the ones that I have already observed from my four older siblings, giving me the chance to experience new possibilities and outcomes. One change was being the first and last of my siblings to leave the nest to attend college away from home at Blinn College in Bryan; however, I now reside back in Houston due to a financial and academic setback. This has led me to learn from my mistakes and influenced me to work harder toward better opportunities. I have not only discovered to learn from my past mistakes, but also to open myself up to new possibilities.…

    I first thought I was going to change the world or at least make a difference through physical therapy. That was what I had my mind set on, even throughout high school. But then my world turned a complete 180. I had to move to Nowhere, Texas with my mom, dad, two older sisters, and their kids (my niece and nephew); Charlotte and Cillian. It was weird, hard, and the last thing I ever wanted. Although the move had nothing to do with my career goals, it was another thing that I questioned along with everything that was going on in my life at the time.…

    Up until this point, my life has been particularly uneventful. After my father was stationed at Fort Indian Town Gap, my family moved to the small town of Annville Pennsylvania when I was five. Being that there was not much to do in such a small farm town, I started to join clubs in middle school in order to occupy my time. Through these clubs I completely changed. I transformed into a person who is a leader and is confident in their own abilities.…

    We all want something out of life and most of us have a plan for our lives and where exactly we want to be in 5, 10, or even 20 years. However, most of the time, those 5,10, and 20 year plans do not work out as we expected. We go through triumphs and tragedies; we grow and learn; and we eventually realize that what we have planned is probably going to change because we have changed. Over the course of my life, I have changed in a variety of ways and have overcame a number of challenges. I’ve made plans for my life and most of them did not work out, but looking back, I wouldn’t change a thing.…

    Five years ago, I wasn't sure what path I wanted to take. My life was at a pause. Trying to balance as being a mother of three (my youngest, only two months old at the time), a good wife, and still keep hold of the person I was before moving to America. I had no time to figure out what I wanted for myself. I had uprooted my family and left my home to explore the American Dreams. However, once we arrived; the "American Way" seemed so hard for me to understand. Everything was so different.…

    The article “Are You Deciding On Purpose” about the interview of author, speaker, and counselor Richard Leider really made me think about my life and what I want to do with myself. Leider brings up many great points in the interview and it was an eye opener for me after I finished reading the article. The first thing he mentions in the interview is how people are intimidated by all the choices we have now as career options. Nowadays, there are so many career paths to choose from that it overwhelms people and the decisions that they make. I think this is true for everyone and especially me. I thought about this for a while and I too do not have any idea what I want to do in my life. I have changed my mind many times about what I wanted to do as a career and I always thought about the money. After I finished reading the article, I realized that picking a career path is not all about the money. It’s about whether you enjoy what you are doing because you spend 60% of your entire life working. If I spent 60% of my entire life just working to pay the bills, I would be miserable by the time I’m retired because there wasn’t any satisfaction or fulfillment for me. I still don’t have any clue on what I want to do with my life but reading this article really changed my mind on a lot of things.…

    Transitions to adulthood are usually positive events, be they quinceneras, bat mitzvahs, or just getting older. Most people see transitioning into adulthood as something beautiful and amazing. Unfortunately, what people fail to understand is that not everyone’s life is exactly the same, and we all manage to fall into that assumption that it happens at the same time for everyone, and nobody ever comes out with any negative results.…

    I can still remember the first couple incidents that happened to me that started to shift my path of life. On May 26, 2011 I graduated from high school. It was a day full of happiness, sadness, and anxiety. I planned on taking time off of school since I have been in it for about 12 years straight. I planned on taking lots of trips with my friends and just experiencing new things in the new world. I also knew that if I did go back right away I wouldn’t succeed to my full potential. I simply wasn’t ready. At my grad party, I got into an argument with my brother, because I was defending my cousin. It soon escalated into a full on brawl between me, my brother, my boyfriend at the time, my father, and some friends. I made my way from outside where everyone was yelling at each other into my room. My father stormed into my roomed, where he proceeded to keep yelling at me telling me how I always screw everything up and I felt so overwhelmed that I just wanted to leave. Every ounce of me tried to escape that mad house but he wouldn’t let me leave until the cops arrived. I packed up a few things and left to stay with my boyfriend. A couple of days later I went and got the…
