We are not talking about the simple changes that are indicated by external circumstances such as a move of residence or a new eating program.  We are also not referring to a change of jobs or partners. No, what we are referring to here is the kind of internal change that will be required in you as you are dealing with all these external changes in the world around you.

Preparing for change does not mean laying in supplies as if planning for disaster, nor does it mean worrying/fretting/creating anxiety over not knowing what is coming.  The preparations being required of you now are those that require you to examine yourself, your life, your relationships, and the details of your days.  These days of preparation are for you to go inside your own inner space and peer into all the nooks and crannies of your existence to decide if what you find there is something that you wish to keep within you.

For example, when is the last time that you examined your daily schedule to consciously choose what you do each day, what order in which you do those tasks, who you spend your time with, how much attention you give to your inner life, how much time you spend expanding your horizons with new knowledge, what food you eat?  So much of every day of human life can be spent moving like a robot that many people are being robots throughout their days, never stopping to become the examiner of what they are doing.  Are you a ‘human being’ or a ‘robot doing’?

Before you can grow and evolve as a human being you must first be conscious of the choices you are making at all times.  Examine the way in which you spend your time to see what it is that you actually value most, not just what you think you value or what you hope you value.  At every given moment you are making choices:  about how you are spending that moment of your precious life, about how you are speaking to another, what you are thinking or doing, and whether or not you are fully present to that moment or focusing on something in the past or the future.  You are always at choice.

So notice how you are making choices.  What values determine the choices you make?  As you prepare for change, are you eschewing that which really doesn’t fit the values you wish to focus on?  Are you looking for ways to grow and to evolve?  And are you valuing your own inner life and inner growth?

Some think that preparing to change is about the actual moving forward, like packing to move to another home.  But the real preparations must be made inwardly.

If, for example, you are ready to move to another house and have everything packed in boxes, ready for the movers, have you also examined how you feel about your move?  Is there any unfinished business about the home or neighborhood or town that you are leaving?  Have you even taken time to think about this?  This example shows how easy it is to be distracted by the external activities and to forget about the inner life and its needs.

Think about your life today and make conscious choices to be prepared for any changes that might be coming.  Get rid of the unnecessary and bring in what is needed.  Create a daily schedule that supports your inner life.  Make your choices from advancing consciousness.

Live a conscious life as a ‘human being’ not a ‘robot doing’!
