You have two choices:
- Wait for your circumstances to change so you don't have to change.
- Change without waiting for anything or anyone else to change.
By choosing #1, you relinquish control. You could wait your whole life for a change that never happens. If a change does happen, there's no certainty it will work in your favor. If it does work in your favor, there's no guarantee it won't change again and again.
By choosing #2, you retain control. You decide what to change, when, and how. When change happens around you, you change along with it. If a change works in your favor, you can leverage it for maximum value. If it doesn't work in your favor, you're willing to change yourself.
So the question isn't, "Do I want to change?"
The question is, "Do I want to retain or relinquish control of change in my life?"
