What happens to others
in our circles when we change?
Why might they have
trouble with the concept?
If we think about our
connections to others as being part of a movie, we can see clearly that if we
change one scene or one character, it is logical that the total movie changes!
Our repositioning requires
that the others in our movie also change.
If they don't shift, than the entire picture is out of kilter and can
feel uncomfortable to them. This often requires
them to acknowledge their own stuckness.
Another reason for the
discomfort others feel with our changes is that it can make them feel out of
control. The world they had neatly cataloged
and stored is suddenly different.
