    I think most difficult thing in life is to change your habits. Even modifying the habits is a big deal. In my situation I noticed that I am open to changes upon necessities. I can take sudden decisions to change my way when I am in serious situation. On the other hand in my daily life I am not too strict. I can adjust myself easily by changing my way of thinking. Most of the time it brings joy and surprises to life.

    I identify so much with what you’ve said. I am able to adapt to situations and make decisions when there is something important to do or for work. However, I struggle with personal things. For example, I’d like to do more exercise and create daily habits where I exercise even just for 10 minutes a day. But I am not strict enough with myself and after a few days, I don’t do it.

    Thinking I am going to learn though! I believe we can change our habits with positive thinking and some effort.

    As you both have said, I also change if I have to. It depends on what changes I have to make. But in general I adapt well to change. IĀ“ve realized that I find it difficult when itĀ“s something really important in my life. I tend to overthink things sometimes, so IĀ“m trying to change that. IĀ“ve learned that you canĀ“t always control everything so changing is part of growing. If not, you get stuck where you are.

    Some people resist change for different reasons. But, I think that the main reasons would be out of laziness and fear. People prefer doing things they are already used to and changing involves learning a new way of doing something. Some people are too lazy to learn and change. Fear is also a key factor. I believe when people donĀ“t read or learn or get information they tend to be narrow minded. And so, change is like a non-comfort zone to them.

    Agree completely about laziness and fear @Carly. Some people are so set in their ways, the idea of change is alien.
