A Brave Act; most people can't resiliently do

"Change: It starts with you"

What is change? Change is a challenging process that unfolds slowly and involves risks, failures, and criticism. Often, it is the fear of these factors that hinders people from taking the first step towards change. This initial step is the most difficult and intimidating because it requires vulnerability. However, it also presents opportunities for freedom and significant possibilities. Change is  naturally uncomfortable and not meant to be easy; if it were, everyone would embrace it.

While we intellectually acknowledge the value of change, we often struggle when it comes to personally initiating change. If I desire to change my life, it must begin with me—not relying or expecting others to change. As Gandhi famously stated, "Be the change you want to see in the world," and this is indeed challenging. The most significant change often needs to occur in our perception of how the world treats us. The journey of change begins with self-awareness and By taking responsibility for our actions, embracing personal growth, and leading by example, we become the driving force behind positive change.

In conclusion, change is never comfortable, and it is never easy. If we desire change, it must originate from within ourselves. "Be the change you want to see in the world." If we aspire to improve our world, it is not enough to expect others to change; we must also be willing to change. To achieve something better, the obligation is on us to initiate the change. We cannot just rely on others to change; we must take responsibility for the change we seek. Change starts within each of us, and together, we can create a brighter future.
