Transitions are like a metamorphoses. Changing from one stage to the next is uncomfortable. Becoming something new in order to leave behind what was brings its own set of challenges. It can be easy to become frustrated, impatient, and misuse the time waiting for what is next. Being stagnant in a place one doesn’t belong but doesn’t not belong can test a person.
These transition stages are really just opportunities. Opportunities to grow and become ready for the next stage. Transition stages can seem undefined and become places that need to be filled in so to speak.
Here are three itty bitty reminders:
- Trust that you are in the right place to develop into what you need to become
- Have faith that what is next is a blessing
- Get comfortable and make yourself at home until the next step is shown to you
