## Caption

Have you noticed the pattern... but not changed it?
Awareness is the beginning. It isn’t the finish line.

So many of us can identify the habits, beliefs and behaviours holding us back. We can explain where they came from and why they’re there.

But understanding a pattern and changing a pattern are two very different things.

Real change begins when you start competing with the fear, comfort and default behaviours that created it in the first place.

Start small.
One different choice.
 One different response.
 One step towards the person you’re becoming.

Awareness opens the door - Courage is what walks through it.
