DON'T CHANGE

Resist change that is not beneficial to you and those you love.  Your peer group, your culture, and anyone trying to manipulate you to change just for their benefit may not have your best interests in mind.  You have created your path throughout your life, making both wise and unwise decisions.  Appreciate the wise decisions, forgive yourself for mistakes, and go forward.  

Don't stubbornly cling to outmoded or ineffective  opinions and behaviors.  Think out of the box, keep an open mind, and consider other options.  Discover the reasons you agree or disagree and weigh the benefits or drawbacks of change.    

To help your thinking, talk with trusted friends.  Be brave to change or not to change.  Choose your own path.  

CHANGE

Progress requires change.  If you like the way things are and don't want change, progress may come to a standstill.  If you have more confidence in past decisions, future improvements may become impossible.

Some people advise to think out of the box, consider many ways of doing things.  This can be difficult if that box is your closed mind.  Comfort frequently comes from keeping things the same; the familiar has served a purpose and seems more satisfying.  Change seems unnecessary, even risky.

Sometimes an outside influence, a fresh set of eyes, can get you going.  Be brave; consider other options and open that box of possibilities.  Change.
