Most people would like to change something about their lives. The ability to change is within each of us, however, we do not always make the changes we want, or even know where, or how to begin. Both pros and cons to making the desired change likely exist, and these competing ideas can often serve to keep us "stuck. To make matters worse, making a change typically means giving something up, and when we give something up, we replace it with something new, usually the unknown. Confronting the unknown often produces feelings of anxiety and uncertainty. Many people resist change, despite the desire to change, because they feel very uncomfortable when they cannot predict their own feelings, responses, or what might happen in the future because of this change. Fear of the unknown can then become another obstacle to change. The process is difficult, and change is never easy, or we would be doing it already!

In my 30 years of research on job satisfaction, personal growth, and career change with over 45,000 individuals, a pattern emerged. Individuals, who exhibited a Quester constellation of traits, were happier, healthier, and more successful than those who did not. They possessed that "extra something" that could get them through crises and transitions. These Quester qualities that enabled individuals to manage crises and transitions are common in very young children. Unfortunately, we tend to lose them as we age. The good news is, they can be "relearned." I wrote my award-winning, best seller, Questers Dare to Change Your Job and Life, to help you understand and manage the feelings that come from your quest for satisfaction and success - to help you understand change and empower yourself to manage changes occurring within and around you.
