What I Learned From Writing Online: It DOES make a difference…

Preface: This is an entry for Robert Hzurek’s September writing project, hosted by Middle Zone Musings. I have showcased Robert’s monthly efforts here before, and will likely continue to do so, for he has our magic, magnetic word in them…

Jon, that’s a great question! I think the primary driver for any sustainable change can be found in one word: MOTIVATION.

So the real question is, how do we MOTIVATE people to embrace change?

Alas, it’s going to be different for everyone and for every change – but I think by recognizing that one fact, it’s a start. I mean, you can kick folks in the butt as much as you want, but once they experience true motivation, they’ll do it on their own, right?

Sounds like something worth writing about, wouldn’t you say, Jon? Why not answer your own question and send me a link for posting here? Let’s get some reader feedback on this one.

Great post, now how do we get people to embrace change on a constant basis? We always talk about moving forward, but how do we fuel this fire, keep this energy alive?

Great article. Many people think the only kind of change that is good, is the change in their pocket. As a motivational speaker, I stress that the only chance you have to become better is for your circumstances or you to change, so change is your fiend. Here is a recent One Minute Motivator of mine that stresses taking a positive approach to every situation and working to make it better and therefor have change work for you: “Go into every situation with the belief that you can improve it in some way. Coming into a situation with the intent to add value in some way focuses your thoughts on the positive for you and increases the odds you will be able to improve it. We get what we look for so looking to add value will create that outcome for you.”

OK, thanks and keep up the good work. Edward W. Smith, author Sixty Seconds To Success.

Liz! Yes, six-word stories appears to be my legacy, doesn't it? I appreciate your kind thoughts and words - you've been something of an inspiration to me and many others like me for quite a while!

It'll be interesting to see what the next (pick one: year, month, day, hour, minute, second, moment) will bring, won't it?

Robert,
Form you six-word stories to the day you moved to this blog and ever since, you’ve been having an impact and changing lives with your words. You’ve even been changing your own. Wow! Just to look back! What an awesome guy you have become.

I’m going to keep with my quest to write words that make one person better.

Yo, Pete! Good luck with that birthday thing tomorrow, er, yesterday… um, next wee- oh, I’m so confused!

But hey, I’ll take any credit I can get!

Well seeing as it’s already tomorrow here in Australia (Friday that is), I better do this yesterday… Wait a second …

Oh, whatever! I’m just going to go plan my wife’s birthday party a week earlier than I normally would in the hopes it’ll actually be GOOD this year. (But shhh, don’t tell her)

If she likes it, I’ll give you (some of) the credit, Bob!
