This post is a continuation of my last entry. I have been thinking a lot about this one particular word. What does it mean to me personally??? This word has been used and abused in different context, depending on whatever way you look at it.
C.H.A.N.G.E.
C = Communicate; Community; Clarity; Collaborate; Cooperative; Connection; Choice
In my opinion each letter of the word represent something. Note: This is just a personal reflection.
C = Communicate; Community; Clarity; Collaborate; Cooperative; Connection; Choice
The above denote positive things. When a change is created, there has to be chord among all. It has to be in concert. There should not be any conflict, confusion or chaos. Most importantly, it should not create chasm in any form or another. Change must be a celebration!!
H = Hope; Holistic; Heard; Honour; Honest; Harmonious
Change will happen whether you like or not!!! We are not living in a bubble. Change is all about hope. It must be heartfelt and as such opinions of everyone must be heard. When this is achieved then there is harmony.
A = Adaptable; Alignment; Acceptable
To create positive change, it must be acceptable. It has to be aligned with the common good.
N = Need; Negotiate; Network
There must be a need for change. We can not live be in a rut!! However, to create a positive new reality, it has to be nice. Negotiation and networking are key ingredients
G = good; governance; grow; goal; guidance
Solid groundwork is essential for change. There has to be a goal that is good for everyone. Change that give room for growth. Change should not be just glossies!
E = Empowerment; Ensure; Enable; Engage
To ensure effective change, we must empower through enabling environment. Rule of engagement is part and parcel of effective change. If done correctly, change can bring enlightenment.

In my continuous self reflection and self discovery, I've always thought that I'd change...
But I think, also one of the most important things to have pre-changing is the readiness and the need (as you said it) to change.. and to believe that you are changing for the better...
There isn't a need to change into something worse!! Then you're better off not changing at all...
A good entry aunty, a thinking one =)
Change is such a big word and concept. I have evolved, and hence, changed. However, deep inside, i have remain relatively the same - do you get it?
People are often afraid of change. Its the unknown. Can it be successful? is it for the better? and many more.
On a personal level, if one constantly want to find the good and improve oneself, that is always a good change. However, in transition, some lose their way. Some may find the path, others forever lost.
In our quest of change, I feel that people in our surroundings have the responsibility to help us find THAT right path. After all, no change is easy, especially without direction and support from people in our surroundings.
