They say change is inevitable. But why is it difficult for us to do it ourselves? Maybe it's not easy, maybe we don't want to. Maybe it is uncomfortable or maybe there's something inside of us that is so hard to let go. Or maybe, there are some reasons.
And maybe here they are:
1. Egos
Changing is hard because we don't want to do it. We don't want to to do it because other people told us to do it. We don't want to do it because it strikes the most sensitive part of our life (ego). We don't want to do it because we don't see anything wrong from us.
It's hard. Yes it is.
2. Initiative
The moment that we start having self-realization, looking ourselves in the mirror and thinking why other people keep telling us to do it, we might come to realize that maybe, there's really something that we need to change.
3. Our Mistakes
Change is hard because accepting our mistakes burns our egos. We think that it makes us less a person. But it's not about that. It should be about acceptance and understanding.
We are not perfect. If we accept our fault in the most possible way that we can, other people would understand us in the most possible way that they can, too.
4. Pride
It burns our life. It kills. It makes us the hardest person we could ever be. It's the biggest cause why we don't want to change.
But when we try to swallow it, we can start seeing ourselves enlightened by the truth.
5. Time
The same as moving on, changing ourselves takes time. It's not something that can happen in a glimpse of an eye. It can be uneasy but the most important thing is, we are trying.
We may not see the benefit as of the moment but at least, we don't let ourselves burn in the sea of life's deadly enemy (pride).
