Life is Changes, and what we can do with it?
Author: ANNAmain • Date: 01 November 2014 at 06:21 PM

Next week I`ll start to post description of each painting from Climate Change project. For today it is the best to link the very fresh article by Dr.Ichak Adizes  "Life is Change" delivered just that morning.

Dr.Adizes wrote: "...To start with, can we agree that life is change? We are born, grow and age.  Constantly changing physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually among many other dimensions.
Life is change.
And what happens when there is change? There are problems.
Why?
Because change means something new has happened, and now decisions have to be made – what to do? Because the phenomena is new, making a decision about it involves uncertainty, and when we implement the decision, there is a risk that it might somehow backfire.
To act in conditions of uncertainty and risk is identified as “we have a problem.”
But what happens next, after we decide and implement our decision?

And what happens when there is change? There are problems.

Why?
   
Because change means something new has happened, and now decisions have to be made so what to do?  Because the phenomena is new, making a decision about it involves uncertainty, and when we implement the decision, there is a risk that it might somehow backfire."

To start with, can we agree that life is change? We are born, grow and age. Constantly changing physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually among many other dimensions.

Life is change.

And what happens when there is change? There are problems.

Why?

Because change means something new has happened, and now decisions have to be made – what to do? Because the phenomena is new, making a decision about it involves uncertainty, and when we implement the decision, there is a risk that it might somehow backfire.

To act in conditions of uncertainty and risk is identified as “we have a problem.”

 

But what happens next, after we decide and implement our decision?

Life is Change
Life is Change

This is true.

However I want to make the note: we have a mirror situation here. Life is changes, but as we are still alive, life is the chain of solutions. We are people who resolve problems making solutions, this is our way from dead past to fresh future.

When you decide, life is a chain of problems, this is not so motivating, isn`t it? This is a hidden rock which tempts us to decrease changes just by our desire to decrease risks. Lay down and hope for nothing. I know many people who are doing it. Their life seems the same, not so happy, but with the same things they had yesterday. This is a kind of satisfaction they feel about it, a kind of controle. They are feeling to control their tomorrow freezing all changes in life. it seems covered by common sense.

But!

They are growing elder anyway. The world is changing around. Many chances are passing away while people stuck into decision of no changes.

Changes comes. But no solutions about.

So, the point is how to make right solutions. Here it is several strategies. For example it can be diversification. Another solution is to be wide skilled professional. Of narrow skilled but with continuous solid clients or results.

Another choice bases on the Lifecycle: we learn from Adizes theory how to overcome obstacles and normal problems of growth, how to avoid pathological problems and then how to gain the Prime and Stable points and keep ourselves on it. This is the best tool to make decisions.

Anyway? when we face a problem it is really goon to stay on the position: what could we do with it to make solution and what is our aim to stay on Prime and Stable points of the Lifecycle.

Why am I sleaking about it now?

Because too many sourses claims, the best solution is the one makes you feel good.

This is lie.

Sometimes we need to abandon our comfort zone to gain new results. Obviously it is not the best feeling from the beginning. But we do it not  just to make our ego satisfied. We do it for the best result which is the sigh of strategic style of life.

Our world became more and more complicated every year. So if you want to stay in Prime and have good tomorrow, making you life as a chain of good solutions, you should pay attention about what to do in strategic way.

The last question:

what is the power to keep moving? What supports us while we are doing an appropriate changes?

The answer is in Dr.Adizes article you can read here www.ichakadizes.com/life-is-change/

and in the quote you can see here

I am doing it all the time. If my next aim required changes I do it. I know, overcoming my own barriers I can gain more. So my personal choice is a good illustration for the rule I am speaking about.
