25 Inspiring Quotes about Change
Change will always happen, both planned and unexpected. The question then is how we deal with it, because change is inevitable, but growth is optional.
I know from my personal experience that change is scary. Stepping out of our comfort zone is difficult, but necessary if we want to change our lives. Even our ego reminds us every day that it is easier not to change. It says, “I don’t want to change. It is good as it is.” But then, at some point, our heart and our mind prevail and they say: “Change is something I need. I need it and I want to start it right now.”
True Change starts Today. True Change starts when you decide that is enough, and that you want to change your life forever.

I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.
