Many want change. For the better, of course — and fast.
Sadly, the biggest obstacle to change is often the person himself.
He’s too attached to his old ways, habits, and thinking. Like a hoarder, he clutters up his mind, filling every corner with things he thinks he might "need someday." In this trash can, there’s no room for a creator or anything new.
According to one study, only 42% of people with hoarding tendencies recognize their behavior as problematic. And so, the person who wants change creates a dilemma in his mind: “I want to improve my life, but I don’t want anything to change right now.”
Sometimes fate steps in and sets fire to all that old clutter.
Suddenly, man realizes he’s helpless, vulnerable, and exposed. Soon after, he thinks, "Hmm, I’ve lost everything, but I’m alive!" In time, he has an epiphany: "I haven’t felt this free in ages."
Wow! Turns out, after the exhale comes a pause, then a fresh inhale.
Wise is the one who regularly burns away the junk, without waiting for fate to strike.
Sincerely yours,
