Change in the New Year

January 01, 2024 187 Comments

You don’t need a special day to make a change in your life. You can do it at any moment or instant of your choosing. Traditionally people reflect on New Years Day as a time to turn over a new leaf so to speak. Dont let anyone make you feel bad for doing just that but don’t fixate on a time or date for change. You are changing every second of every day in life. Even now as you read this your body and brain are reacting to stimulus and forming thoughts of how you could change something for yourself. These pathways are new and need to be nurtured but they are there. The more you do something the more you lock in these changes. This going both ways though both positive and negative. The more repetitions and even stumbles on the path to positivity the stronger you get in those aspects. The same can be said for regression but the struggle is what makes things happen both for or against where you want to be.

The important thing is that you are engaged in change that you want to see. If its fitness get out and do something. If its struggling to write more like me then get some words on digital paper. Take a step in someway that reenforces the goal you have in mind. In these steps of meaningful movement you build pathways to where you want to be. Along with learning these steps are key to development that we should be constantly seeking as rogues. Dont discount your own growth off of what others say or hold yourself to someones standard. You grow as you can where you can when you put in the energy and work. Make a list if it helps you of how you have driven to a better place than where you were when you started.

There is a sense in the world today that all change is easy or some pill you take to get where you want to be. The reality is that you get what you put your energy into. If you don’t put energy into what you want then you cant expect to see results. There is a painful stage where sometimes we reflect and see that while we wanted something we put little to no effort into getting it. Find the steps you can take and keep taking them. If something gives you inspiration keep it close to you. I carry my coin with me everywhere and sometimes reflect on the impressions or events injected into some items. Of course the real item that all of this has been impactful on is my own self. During a visit to a close friend this past year he remarked on my Rogue Cuff (https://www.roguedynamics.com/products/rogue-cuff?_pos=1&_sid=7e15b84c9&_ss=r) and that he had wanted one for some time. I gave him mine and in so gave him all those places and experiences I had with it. For me it was a way to share something with a good friend but also to let those impacts wash over me and into someone else. In do doing so I hope that they continue to see it as inspiration to grow and achieve what they want.

Hopefully you are working on improving yourself on this day in this moment and every moment forward you can. No matter if its as little as thinking about where you want to be there is still movement. Nothing is still even in death but you can fight off the ways we stifle our own growth by taking concentrated steps with realistic goals that get us to where we want to be. Rogues are not conformists and know that there is always change taking place. New horizons and knowledge paired with capabilities are out there waiting.
