Normally, we have our own lives we go through and manage... We want consistency and security...
A lot of things in this world is uncertain. A lot of CHANGES, that is part of normal lives... Change is everywhere... New releases of artists' albums, cars, cellphones, computers and a lot more...
See, everything in this world is temporary...
Only one thing is permanent and that's CHANGE...
At times, we go through some changes. These changes usually deals with the common upgrades, updates of things like phones or cars and stuff... But most times we are uncomfortable with CHANGE. This shows in us being uncomfortable when we change structure or daily routine. There are uncertainties that we don't want to face, what will this "CHANGE" in routine, schedule or structure bring in my life. We don't want to face it. Another kind of change we don't feel comfortable with is change of address and stuff like that. But of course this may differ if the change of address is a better address, but at some point or to some certain extent there is that uncomfortable feeling.
These are all surface changes or changes on the outside...
How about change of self?This is the best example that one faces difficulties in changing.
Usually, people have been in denial with change...
People are usually in denial with their behaviors and attitudes...
As everyone goes with their everday things, they are confronted with their realities, whether responsibilities in work, at school, at home or anywhere involving being confronted by others or himself with his/ her attitudes. When this happens people then resort to denial or avoidance of the issue.
Have you ever experienced people who are just so full of themselves? or maybe people who are quiet because they regard themselves too much for others? even people who, when you confront start to back off by silent treatment or maybe lash back or be angry with you all of a sudden when all your trying to do is confront him with his negative attitudes... These people are hard to confront because you are dealing with arrogant and self centered people who do not want to open up to constructive criticisms from others to develop themselves and change themselves for the better, they inturn don't change, they are in denial and afraid of changing their attitudes that has clouded them into a defense mechanism either being arrogant, selfish, irresponsible and other negative attitudes, they are in their negative comfort zone that they don't want to get out from. They do not realize that these behaviors of theirs do not bring them positive results, instead maybe, loose some... They do not see this until they loose something or a major mistake has been done which affects him or her to realize his or her mistake.
People tend to loose themselves over their attitudes due to their past. They have went through experiences which caused them to acquire these attitudes to feel protected, and as they move with their lives, they don't gain new strength of characters, or new development in their personalities. They don't CHANGE...
With all these, it just shows that we are afraid of change. We all want to stay at the comfort zones we all got used to... This becomes a hindrance to growth and development...
This happens most times... Sad thing is, people usually are unaware of this... Maybe aware at times but just chooses to not CHANGE... That's distorted thinking already...
