Change will come our way regardless if we want it or not, the key is looking for the positive in the new situation. If we focus on finding the good in a new situation, we will find it. The same is true for looking for the bad; we will find it. You need to spend your time and effort looking for how you can turn the new situation into a positive one for you. What strengths do you have that play to the new situation? Remember, you really do not have any competition, as there is no one else in the world like you. No one has your particular combination of education, experience, interests, abilities, etc. The key is to ask yourself how you can fit into the new situation and add value. Many people only like the kind of change they have in their pocket, winners see change as another chance to make it to the top. Contact Information Copyright Edward W. Smith 2005 Edward W.
