A Change Question - What Deserves Attention At This Stage of the Change?

Welcome to A Change Question — a special mini-series from The Inner Game of Change . In each short, solo episode, I bring you one question worth sitting with — the kind that can gently shape how we think, work, and move through our lives. As change unfolds, our attention often becomes scattered. We try to notice everything. The risks. The effort. The expectations. But each stage of a change has its own centre of gravity. Something new begins to rise. Something quieter, but more essential, asks for our attention. In this short, reflective episode, Ali explores the question: What deserves attention at this stage of the change? Drawing on The Little Prince , Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea , the writings of Marcus Aurelius and Simone Weil, and examples from Jane Eyre and The Lord of the Rings , this episode looks at how attention shifts as we move through different stages of a change. This is not advice. It is a gentle pause. A moment to consider what truly matters now, what no longer needs to be held so tightly, and what might open if we offered our attention with more intention. A short episode for anyone sensing that the next stage of their change might require a different kind of focus. Send us Fan Mail Ali Juma @The Inner Game of Change podcast Follow me on LinkedIn
