Keeping Your Balance in the Midst of Change - Florida State College at Jacksonville (08/04/15) 

When is the last time you experienced a change?  Last week?  Yesterday?  Five minutes ago?

Change, of course, is inevitable. We have changes in automation systems, technology changes, changes in work schedules, changes in management, even our patrons change. The stress of change is compounded by our tendency to rush – rush to do this, hurry to get somewhere. It seems as if every single minute of every single day is packed full with a list of “have-tos,” “should-dos” and “musts.” And the list keeps changing!

In Keeping Your Balance in the Midst of Change, we will not only discuss the reasons for change, but why most of us resist it. We’ll learn how to deal with that resistance – in ourselves and others. Along the way, we’ll also discover how to deal with the changes we all face every day.

And for those occasions when the stress of hurrying through life becomes too much, we will learn how to take control of life. We’ll uncover the time robbers that are stealing our most precious commodity – and how to deal with them more effectively.

You’ll have an opportunity to reflect on what is most important in your life – and decide how you are going to make time for those priorities. As a bonus, you’ll receive an extensive list of ways you, too, can return much-needed balance to your life.
