MASTERING LIFE TRANSITIONS IS THE KEY TO REAL HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS!
You’ve reached a career dead-end, how do you make a job transition? Your heart was broken into a million pieces, how do you survive the days ahead? You’re migrating into another country, how do you face the challenges before you? How do you survive the transition?
Surviving difficult life transitions is one of the most important things we need to know if we desire to live a full and meaningful life. We may not have noticed it, but transition follows us the moment we were born ’til the moment we die. First, we make the transition from childhood to adolescence, from adolescence to adulthood. Then we make the transition from single life to married life, from an active career into retirement.. In between are many other difficult transitions challenging us, sometimes ripping our very hearts apart that we know not how on earth we’re ever going to survive.
How do we survive a sickness and achieve healing? How do we gain wisdom and grow from our immaturity? How are we ever going to rise from our poverty into abundance? From brokenness into wholeness? From darkness to light? From death to eternal life?
What is transition anyways? How do we survive difficult transitions in our life?
TRANSITION is CHANGE. It is a transformation we undergo in order to reach a desired end. In some cultures, it is also called a rite of passage, such as when a male passes from boyhood into manhood and accepts all the powers and responsbilities attributed to his new social position.
Transition is therefore stepping into another level, into another world where we are not so familiar with, where we may not yet be equipped to enter. Transition is that difficult process we make in order to CROSS OVER in that OTHER WORLD.
Following are several things you may find useful in assisting you in the many life transitions you may undergo. I cannot guarantee its completeness nor can I be able to summarize it in 3 easy steps in a way many “how to” articles are done. Transition after all, is not a simple process, and everybody deserves to receive as much assistance as one could possibly get.
•1. Understand what’s happening
Before you could go on to any other point or desired end, you must first be able to know what’s really going on at the moment.
What’s taking place at the moment? Why is it taking place? What’s making the situation difficult? Is what you’re going through a natural process that cannot be avoided? If it isn’t, what are the alternatives?
Are you broken hearted from the separation or passing away of a loved one? Surely, you did not intend any of it to happen, but it happened anyway, and the only road that lies before you is the road of healing and recovery from your pain.
Are you frustrated at your current job and planning to move on to the next? Maybe you can first ask yourself why you’re frustrated in the first place. What’s causing your frustration? A grumpy boss perhaps? A jealous officemate? What are your alternative causes of action? Will it be an outright move into another career? Will it only be a change from one company to another? Is there any possible improvement if you should study further and acquire more relevant skills to the position?
Understand what’s going on right where you are. Transition is not a mere EXCUSE or a means of escape from somewhere you’re frustrated to be (even if we do feel it like that!). In fact, transition is the ability to CONNECT TWO different planes of reality.
Transition is the MASTERY of TWO WORLDS and achieving “balance” in the process, said balance being the point where the different forces of the Universe seem to converge and fall into their proper places, creating MIRACLES along the way.
Haven’t you wondered how in various Myths and Legends, there is always that Hero or Heroine who is the offspring of a God and a mortal being? This is because that hero is the one tasked to bridge the gap between heaven and earth, the One who can TRANSCEND two different worlds at the same time! In my article “How do you save someone who is lost in the dark?” I explained more deeply how the process of uplifting someone very much entails that a redeemer transcend two worlds instead of remaining where he is and giving instructions to one who is utterly lost in her path.
In ancient Philippines, the BABAYLAN (Shaman) is the one who performs a similar task. She (a babaylan is often a female) is the one who communes with the spirit world, the one who lifts up the many prayers of the people in her community. She is the one who connects the physical and the spiritual planes to bring about balance and healing where she is.
Transition is mastery. And to be able to achieve mastery, you must be able to understand what is taking place at the present moment, right where you are.
