In business, relationships, health, wealth and in life, people must decide whether to keep fixing something that isn’t working or to let it go. Lockdown has been a time where our lives slowed down and we got to examine what we really wanted to generate for our future. Some changes were initiated for us in being made redundant, going on furlough or in leaving a business or relationship BUT what about the endings we know we should initiate and are too afraid to initiate? Growth demands change, and change means endings. To make room for the next good thing, often you must rid yourself of the last bad thing. Endings are difficult. People make excuses to stay with something familiar because they fear the unknown and there is so much uncertainty as we leave Lockdown, that sticking with something that isn't half bad is better than facing the abyss of the unknown. Most people don’t know how to manage the endings that life forces on them, and that results in unnecessary pain. Similarly, failing to end things correctly often dooms people to repeating their mistakes. But when good endings are done well, they bring hope.

In today's podcast I talk about the endings we should bring about to initiate change in our lives and give you a methodology to use to initiate those changes in your life. I will examine:

• The 3 criteria for WHY something should become an ending
• Taking the honest inventory of your life as you know it
• Imagining life as you truly would love it to be
• Designing a new strategy to get there using the MOSAIC method

Embracing endings as a natural part of life will help you handle the uncertainty of life beyond Lockdown.
