Making A Fresh Start: Embracing New Beginnings
Introduction

by Susie J. Briscoe

Change that leads to new beginnings can be an exciting time in your life, but it can also be the scariest. Even if your changes are positive in nature such as quitting smoking, going on a healthy diet or changing jobs or career paths, the process can cause upheaval in your life.

You may fear change because of the pending upheavals and run the risk of failing at making positive changes in your life or starting over with a new and exciting lifestyle.

A Fresh Start: Embracing New Beginnings will serve as a life-manual to help you know when fears are holding you back, the power that change can have in all aspects of your life, and offers tips on how to embrace the changes and relish your new beginnings.

You can’t create new beginnings in your life without change. You may hear nagging thoughts in the back of your mind telling you to stay the same – it’s safer than putting yourself out there and being subjected to ridicule, failure, and any number of things that could harm you.

But, where would we be if our forefathers were so afraid of change that they never took a chance? It’s likely no one would ever have ventured out to discover that the world was round rather than flat, that we would never have walked on the moon, or found cures for deadly diseases.

Change is inevitable, whether you choose it or not. One day, you see a gray hair amongst the others in the mirror or the scales have moved up five pounds in the past few days...

This feature over the coming months will show you how to rid yourself of the fear of change and meet them with positivity and enthusiasm. You’ll read about the top ten fears that prevent all of us from changing for the better and learn how to harness the power of change to help you succeed in anything you set your mind to.

You may have heard about the “butterfly effect,” the theory that a mere fluttering of a butterfly’s wings can cause typhoons and tornadoes on the other side of the world.

The butterfly effect of change can affect all areas of your life in a positive way if you embrace the new beginnings and treat them as positive happenings in your life.

This is definitely a time to rethink how your life is progressing and settle on changes you want to make. A Fresh Start: Embracing New Beginnings can get you on your way.
