Ch-ch-ch-changes 

What do we do when change comes into our lives faster than we think or feel we can cope with it? Is being too busy and in constant overdrive a familiar space for you? There will inevitably be changes, as inevitable as the leaves changing colour at this time of year.

So, what would we change about our lives and how would we go about it?

In Girlguiding we encourage the girls to talk to someone around them when things get tough, so could we do some self-reflection on what needs to change for us and then talk to a fellow volunteer about it? Or do you have a good friend or family member who is a good listener?

Maybe writing notes about what could be different suits you better but asking one of your team if they have a few spare minutes, keeping things as positive as you can and being realistic might help you on your way to a clearer understanding of your predicament. Small steps will be encouraging; with your commitment, they could develop into more clarity about where you want to go and how.
