Paradigm Shift


This has been a difficult day with a lot of tears…but then, it is really on these kinds of days that significant growth can take place. As I am attempting to make a paradigm shift between being an achiever and being a contributor, two friends contributed by making me take a hard look at myself. They did not “sugar coat” or tell me what they thought I would like to hear, hence the tears, but perhaps showed greater care for me by being honest.

How will I be a contribution today? “Unlike success and failure, contribution has no other side” (Zander, 2000, p.57).
