Make a Difference With Real Change By Rico Caveglia

By Joel Bomane | May 8, 2009

Change means to transform and implies a fundamental difference or a substitution of one thing for another.

Everything in the universe is constantly changing. Change is the nature of life. Without cycles of change all life would cease to exist. A seed must go through stages of change in order to grow into a plant.

In one year’s time, the 60 trillion cells that make up the human body are replaced with new ones. Our bodies and minds must change in order for us to grow into the person we were meant to be.

It is said that we only struggle in life when we resist change.

Managing Change

The word change is quiet a popular word these days. Change is always the mantra during election time when politicians are trying to convince people to vote for them. In these fast changing and challenging times we are seeing a surprising amount of leadership change in both governments and businesses.

We have to learn to deal with technological, social, cultural environmental and climate changes to name a few. We quite often need to change our attitudes, behaviors, careers, locations, identities and of course our passwords. Yes things are always changing.

However changing just for the sake of change may not be a positive thing. As in most political change, quite often nothing really happens or the change is worse than what we previously had.

We must be aware of what we are changing to. It may be change in the wrong direction. It could be physical deterioration or it could be change that is taking us more into the darkness. The change I am suggesting is what I call Real Change.

Real Change

The headline on my new web site We All Make A Difference.com is: Change Yourself, Change Our World. As Gandhi once said “Be the change you want to see in the world”

My definition of change in this context is a change that transforms our personal lives so that we have more happiness and joy and it also helps to transform everyone and everything around us in the like manner.

Everyone would like to have more happiness and lasting fulfillment in their lives, the question is how to do it?

Real change occurs when we are focused on personal growth in all aspects of our life. The primary areas that we generally need real change are; physical health, career and financial health, relationship health and our spiritual health.

Physical Health

Our physical heath is vitally important if we are to be ultimately successful in life. Feeling strong and energetic is the foundation for being able to do our best in whatever is important to us. It is critical to learn what our body needs to function optimally and then to create a personalized plan to follow on a daily basis.

The key to success is to realize that our body is a gift that we need to honor. Our body is our vehicle that allows us create real change in the world for the betterment of all mankind.

If you remember this saying “Our body is the temple of our soul, do not treat it like a motel” it will keep you focused on taking good care of your body.

Career and Financial Health

It is my belief that we are all here on earth for a purpose. When we find and begin living our purpose, we not only feel happy and fulfilled, we also will achieve the financial success that is right for us. We all deserve to be happy, fulfilled and financially successful. It is an abundant universe and abundance is our birthright. Poverty does no one any good. Money is just energy and the more energy we have the more good we can create.

Relationship Health

We need to establish healthy relationships with everyone, family, friends, co-workers and especially with ourselves.

How is this possible? It is very possible when we realize that we are all in this world together, we are part of and connected to the whole. We all face similar challenges and desires, depending on where we are on the path to enlightenment. In order to create happiness and fulfillment in our lives we need to create healthy, win-win relationships.

The real game of life is about cooperation not competition. We need to cultivate a sincere desire to help others. We can create great productive relationships, by treating everyone with respect, compassion and understanding of their particular challenges.

Spiritual Health

Spiritual health is the ultimate goal, as this is what we need to achieve in order to truly find lasting happiness and fulfillment. Spiritual health is obtained when we learn to let go of our selfish desires, overcome our egos and work on helping others to achieve real change.

The Key to Creating Real Change

We tend to become content after achieving some degree of success in our lives and want to stay in our comfort zones. It seems we only get motivated to create real change when we are facing serious challenges in our life, whether it’s health, financial or relationships.

A worthy goal is to learn to continuously create real change before a crisis occurs. We can become more aware of our thoughts and actions and learn to create the causes of our life instead of reacting to the effects.

Real change is an ongoing process; it’s why we are here.
