Over the past few years, so much has changed in my life. Many changes have been beneficial to me. Others have not. I have had to start to learn to live as things have changed from what they were. Letting go of what was no longer serving me has been challenging. It was tough to release what I had allowed to be a part of my life for so long. I needed to understand what life is like in this stage. In the beginning, accepting this was difficult. Over time, I began to understand that it is the way it is now. I need to start to let things be.

I felt frustrated and wanted to avoid or run away from things I didn’t want to do. I did not want to accept that this feeling was part of me. I avoided thinking that I had the power to adapt. I realized I needed to adapt to navigate the changes the world has brought in the current situation. I had to see that there are things that I have to accept as they are. I need to learn to work at being my best. By doing so, I can meet expectations and do what I know I’m capable of. If I put forth the effort, I can achieve what I need to get done.

Indeed, change is difficult. Combining it with tasks that can cause anxiety, and unease can make one reluctant to act. This is often the case with me. Still, I have been braving enough to do it before. I know that I can do it if I really need to. Often, my anxiety makes me think I can’t. It draws up excuses for why I don’t want to or can’t do something. Nonetheless, I know I can achieve so much if I put forth the effort. I just need to do it, including learning to adapt to changes.

Gratefully, I am blessed to be in environments where people understand and accept me for the challenges that I have. Regardless, I still must do things and take responsibility for the mistakes I make. It involves accepting feedback and improving things. This happens as suggestions and orders are given. In fact, I have understood the need to do so and have done much better in this regard. Even though people understand and accept me, I must also keep a standard, class, and decorum when I carry myself. This includes knowing when to be honest and when to ask for help if things become overwhelming.

It has been some time now, but I totally understand the need to continue to learn and grow. It is important to adapt to things as they change. I should let things be instead of fighting against changes. Accepting changes prevents anxiety from overtaking me. I can overcome my anxiety by using my power and putting my mind to it.
