Change is life. And life is change.
If we are not changing, then something else is happening in our lives.
Change is not easy. But without change, we are not going to grow.
If you really want to grow, to expand yourself,
then enjoy these three change lessons from Saul Alinsky.
"Change means movement.
"Change means movement. Movement means friction.
Only in the frictionless vacuum, of a nonexistent
abstract world can movement or change occur
without the abrasive friction of conflict."- Saul Alinsky
We need a bridge
"Men don't like to step abruptly out of the security
of familiar experience: they need a bridge to cross
from their own experience to a new day."- Saul Alinsky
We must work together
"Change comes from power, and power comes from organization.
In order to act, people must get together."- Saul Alinsky
Do not expect success to come to you. If you want to be successful, if you want to grow, you must go after it. Do not just sit and wait for things to change in your life. They won’t change. Because nothing happens without action.
And if you want to know what you can do, you must test yourself. You must put yourself to the test. Because you do not know what you can do until you test yourself.
Life is simple. By your actions, you either go forward or backward. By your actions, you either grow or die. By your thoughts, by your actions, you either expand or shrink. That is why you should always pay attention to how you live your life.
It is okay to dream. But a dream without action is a dead dream. A life without movement is a dead life. A person who is not growing is dying.
No matter what you want, if you want it to work, you must take action. You must do something about it. Tyler Perry says, “Faith without hard works is dead. You can’t sit around saying to yourself, “I want to get rich,’ or “I want my business to be successful,” or “I want my family to feel loving,” and then do nothing about it.”
If you want things to work for you, say to yourself, “I can. I will. and I Must.” Yes, you can. Yes, you will. And yes, you must.
