How making necessary endings can radically improve your quality of life?
We’ve all been there, stuck in a rut. Whether it’s a stale relationship or unsatisfying job, it can be difficult to put an end to what we don’t like. Sometimes it’s important that we relieve ourselves of unwanted baggage so we can live fuller lives. Whether that means closing down a struggling business, quitting your unsatisfying job or ending a relationship. Like it or not, endings are necessary, whether at work, in business, or in our personal lives. At some time or other, we’ve all hit that wall. We’re facing the end, and there’s nothing to be done. It’s a universal experience, and it can be galling. But it’s important to remember that endings serve a purpose. They mean we will eventually thrive in professional and personal settings. They are, in fact, necessary. What’s true in business/work is also true in our personal lives. Endings are inevitable, but they mean we can move on.
The lesson: good cannot begin until not good ends. It’s common to think of endings as negative occurrences and as endings can be painful, we do everything within our power to avoid them. But as soon as we see endings as normal, there’s no reason to be afraid and run away from them. But how do we know when an ending is required? For starters, past action is a good indication of future behavior. So look to the past if you want to predict possible futures. The second indicator of success in a given scenario or situation is the trustworthiness of the person responsible. In short, if you want to know what the future will hold, analyze those on whom success depends.
As the saying goes, character is destiny. To create sufficient urgency for change, you've got to get real about present circumstances. Endings seem hard because they require change. Because most of us only make changes when they're absolutely necessary, endings are particularly tricky. We need to be pushed by fear and pulled by the possibility that the new scenario will be even better. We’re best driven by a sense of urgency – whether it’s a need to escape a disappointing situation or to reach a better place. Sometimes you have to shoulder the responsibility for ending a relationship yourself.
It’s sometimes necessary for endings to arrive sooner rather than later. Relationships with employees/employers, partners, friends, or business managers shouldn’t be sustained if they keep you from thriving. You have to take action, draw a line under the past and learn to move on.
Happy Sunday!! Keep Moving & Smiling!!ππ½π
