Many years ago a boss characterized me as a "change junkie". I think he meant it as a compliment even though he rarely doled out compliments - especially to any women. At the time I was working with a large corporation and daily life seemed to have devolved into sitting in meetings with different consultant groups talking about how we would inspire, manage, drive, and sustain change. Here's how simple my mind is: I thought, if we want to change, why don't we do something(s) different other than sit in rooms hour after hour talking aout how we are going to do things differently. I am a woman of action; of movement; of dynamic progress. I am not afraid of changing things up to generate different results. "Operating in a state of ambiguity" is how I prefer to characterize it.
Even I have limits. Today, I find I have hit a limit. Many people have to develop the mind set to take on change; I have to develop the mind set of what to do to a) slow the change and b) how to operate in greater stasis. Even though I feel like I need to take a break from the change, I am not sure I have the developed muscles to manage it. Maybe a little bit "living in the moment" but also maybe a little bit of "stop trying to alter everything". Maybe they are the same thing.
Musings for the day.
