Testing The Waters

Try before you buy.

So reads the first line of the ad.

It made me want to re-word it to: try before you change.

Although most change is not final, there are times when trying out change might be the next best step.

Akin to the comfort we get from dipping our toe into the water instead of jumping straight in, we might ask ourselves:

How might I test out the temperature of the water?

How might I take one, two, three steps as I slowly walk in?

How will I know that I am ready to swim?

I’m curious, what does it look like if you were to try before you change?
