Embrace Change
The human mind is truly the scariest thing of all. As I tried to understand things, my mind slowly introduced me to the unknown, the one I never once discovered until recently. Who knows that we are capable of hiding things from ourselves not knowing it has a part in our subconscious mind?
Change — this word is very commonly used by many people, dreaming, and hoping that as they close their eyes, change happens. A lot of people say that one must change themselves to see greater things. Change is necessary but not easy — a constant change of behavior must dwell on that one person until she/he becomes familiar with change. As we look in today’s world, many people are so lost wondering what went wrong because all the plans they had aren’t even happening.
The reason why you can’t embrace change at all or no matter how much you tried to change is because you are doing it wrong.

One thing is for sure, there’s wrong with the way you see the word change. Change is a thing that must be practiced to become familiar with. It is a thing that must be seen in our lives daily to truly embrace change. If we only let ourselves talk, we will never be going somewhere.
A tornado of doubt will always be on the way to destroy you, familiarity will always cling to you, and it will never push you to the edge of your limit to know more. It’s like a prison where all you see is the things you have seen.
I, myself had the same scenario in the past, where I thought I was embracing change but in reality, I’m still dwelling in my comfort zone. I thought it was a part of it already since I already saw what was outside the door of my comfort zone, but I never stepped my foot outside, so in the end, I was stuck, thinking I had already gone out.
I fooled myself for several years, until recently, when I saw my classmates achieving more, seeing more, and hoping for more, there I found myself still in a cage. A cage of imagination, where I thought was the reality when in fact it has fooled me for years.
I tried to step my foot outside the cage, but it wasn’t easy because of the familiarity I had inside the cage for how many years. But as the day went by, I tried and tried to slowly step my foot outside, until I found myself in a place where I had never seen before.
