Discover my favorite quotes about change that can inspire us and motivate us in this difficult yet necessary if we want to evolve.
Changes can seem difficult because we simply prefer to stay within our comfort zone and will resist anything that requires us to step out of it. And, we may remember Inertia in Physics from school books. According to Newton’s first law of motion, an object with a given velocity maintains that velocity unless acted on by an external force.
So, it resists any change in its kinetic state, at any time. And, the greater the change, the greater the resistance to it. Thus, the sum of the opposing forces equals zero. Finally, the body does not go anywhere, it becomes inactive. I guess that behind all the excuses to avoid change is the fear of the unknown. But, in a universe where everything changes and evolves, to survive change is inevitable. That’s why we should try to overcome our inner resistance in order to adapt and evolve.
