When It's Time to Change

Posted at 11:21 PM on Saturday, July 12, 2008


When exploring the concepts of change with workshop participants, I usually begin by asking people "write down the first six words or phrases that you think of when I say the word change."

Having done this many times I have heard a variety of responses. But never have I heard the response "Peter Brady" until this week.

When I asked why Peter Brady came to her mind (ok, the whole group wanted to know), Carrie responded. I thought of the song the Brady kids sang on The Brady Bunch when Peter's voice was changing.

So, at the first opportunity I went to YouTube looking for the clip, which I found.



I share this because it makes me smile, and because in a sappy sort of way the message in the song is helpful to us as we think about change of any sort. In caser you resisted the urge to watch the clip, the lyrics say in part:

"When it's time to change, it's time to rearrange - who you are into what you're gonna be."

Sometimes we iniate a change, and sometimes a change is thrust upon us. In either case, a part of our success with it is to recognize, and hopefully embrace how the change will impact us. If we take the Brady's approach we'll take a proactive role in using the change to improve ourselves and our results.
