I’ve been doing that “thinking” thing again lately and I’ve come up with a new “Cedricism” (As someone once called it.) and here it is: “You can’t talk a chicken into laying eggs, you just have to wait until it makes up its own mind.”

That’s right folks no matter what you say or how loud you say it, that chicken is not going to cooperate until it’s ready. Did you know that the same exist for us humans too? Yes, it’s extremely important that we realize and recognize that no matter what we do, we simply can’t change a person that’s not ready and willing to change.

There’s an old adage that says, “A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.” which simply means coercing and forcing someone to change doesn’t really change them. All the love in this great world of ours is not enough to compel the unwilling to take a different course of positive action.

So, I encourage you NOT to waste and spend your time over the years begging and pleading for a friend or foe or loved one to change. Our time should be invested in other productive things until the change is welcomed by the one who needs it most. This is when “real change” can happen.

So until then, continue to love on that “chicken” from a safe distance until it’s ready to lay those eggs, then step in and offer your support. Besides, eggs taste so much better when they’re laid with love.

So, why did the chicken cross the road? Because his family kept telling him to change, but he wasn’t ready. LOL…

Let’s Make it GREAT!
