Good morning.

Welcome back.

So, to make a big change, it often requires that you have to make smaller changes to make

the big change possible.

Without identifying what these are, it will be the little things that will sabotage you

for making the big change that you seek.

For instance, let's say your goal or resolution is to be home by 6.30pm every night so that

you can have dinner with the family.

Well, there are probably a lot of little reasons why you have not been able to do that in

the past.

Unless it was just something you said you wanted to do because it sounded nice, like something

you should do, but really had no real intention or commitment of making it happen.

People often do that, by the way.

But let's just say that you genuinely want to do this and will.

Then you're going to have to make some small changes first to make that big change possible.

So maybe the little changes are things like not allowing meetings to be scheduled for

later than 3pm and no longer than 60 minutes, which would end at 4pm, to still give you

an hour to clear up your day and the mental angst that would keep you at the office if

you didn't have a chance to do so otherwise because you were stuck in meetings.
