If you’ve been in my orbit awhile, you might know I’m a musical theater nerd.
Broadway was my background before becoming a coach, and the bright lights still bring me joy and inspiration, even when the production is a movie adaptation, like the new Wicked I just saw this week.
As you can imagine, I love a good show tune! There’s one in Wicked (saved for Part Two of the movie) where the two witches of Oz acknowledge the transformational power of their friendship by singing, “Because I knew you, I have been changed for good…”
Changed for the better. Changed forever.
It speaks to the magic and possibility of bringing about change in ourselves and the world around us, at any given moment.
We all have the opportunity to use our lives for good.
Change is happening, and we’re heading into the unknown. But we’re still in charge of where our focus goes for good, for the better and forever.
When things feel outside your control, you can always choose good — to be good, to do good, to create good, and to feel good.
You can:
- Be good to yourself.
Take good care of your body, mind, and soul. - Do good.
Reach out to people in your life to share a good word and remind them they matter. - Create good.
In your work, your family, charitable giving, and community. - Feel good.
Practice gratitude. Make meaningful connections. Experience joy and peace.
No matter what we face, we all have the chance to be changed — for good!
