I’m often asked if change is necessary to achieve goals – here’s a short story about change told in five simple paragraphs. What do you think, is change necessary for success?
Chapter 1.
I walk down a street and there’s a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fall in. It takes forever to get out. It’s my fault.
Chapter 2.
I walk down the same street. I fall in the hole again. It still takes a long time to get out. It’s not my fault.
Chapter 3.
I walk down the same street. I fall in the hole again. It’s becoming a habit. It is my fault. I get out immediately.
Chapter 4.
I walk down the same street and see the deep hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it.
Chapter 5.
I walk down a different street.
