Have a open mind before continuing to read this blog post.

Don't open your mail or email, turn away and not think about what has change.

This may not be the time to make a change in your neighborhood. Instead, maybe it can be a time to take a closer look at things.

Over the next 2 weeks, write down some basic facts about something in the neighborhood or surrounding community that you might like to change. For example, some people look at how they feel about their home guest leaving their car doors unlocked while parked in their driveway, unregistered vehicles parked in the neighborhood, the perimeter of your homeowners association properties grass area trim and scharp than the grounds of the surrounding subdivision's properties grass area, or the possible use of marijuana since recently legalized in the state you built your home in.

Which days do you usually think about your neighborhood and or the basic facts you wrote down? On each of those days, how much do you think about it, speak about it, gossip about it, or otherwise loose sleep about it?

Does this interruption of thoughts or can be said like, does this worry cost you money each day? Each week? Each month?

What other changes do you notice? For example, how much of the homeowners association process of newly formation or not there at all such as never exited and or pending dissolution of articles affect your ability to be a good partner, parent, friend, neighbor or employee?

Check in with yourself, some people find it helpful to think about why they continually think, speak of more than once, and or putting themselves out there. You can think of it as a moment to check in with yourself. Ask yourself:

What do I like about ..... ? Example the neighborhood, neighbors, common areas, or current city limits law?

What are the not-so-good things?

Thinking back before the HOA was formed, was or when has my life been better in your home and your neighborhood? What was different then?

Are others worried about similar or same? If so, why?

If I were to act on or close your eyes, how would your/families life be different?

What would I/we miss if you act or support feedback and votes of change?

What are some good things about your actions or change of thoughts, or what you already know is moving forward, what would be the things (if any) that you and your family would look forward to?

Think about your answers. Did anything surprise you? How do you feel about your responses? You can use your answers to help you and your family answer a final question:

How will I know when it's time to make a change?
