Whether we are comfortable with it or not, change is here to stay. It is not going anywhere.

Instead of fighting change, you have got to get comfortable with being uncomfortable.

When it comes to change, you have got to be comfortable with it. You have got to make yourself comfortable with change. Because life is change. And change is life.

If you are not changing, then you are resisting it. Don’t do that, my friend. Because resisting change is not the way forward.

The only way forward, no matter how tough, how difficult, is to embrace change. It is to say, ‘Change, I am all in.’ Because change is always calling.

When it calls, don’t say no. When you say no to change, you are saying no to life, to your growth, to your success.

When it calls, pick up the phone. Do not say, ‘I am not ready, I can’t.’ Embrace it.

You are embracing change when you are not scared to change your mind, when you are open to new opportunities.

You are embracing change when you are not intimidated by your own mind, when you are willing to take a calculated risk.

When change is calling you, don’t resist it. Follow it. Explore it. Lean into it. And learn from it.

When change is calling, do not say, ‘I am okay. I do not want to deal with change right now.’ If you do, you are promoting the status quo. You are just hiding behind your fears.

You do not want to face your reality. And that is what change is all about. It is about facing reality.

When you are faced with a major change in your life, don’t resist it. Don’t get upset. Don’t get depressed. Don’t fill your life with change resisters. It won’t help you.

Because change will never stop calling you. The best solution is to pick up the phone, is to say, ‘yes, I am here.’ The question is, ‘Will you?’

Failure Is Not The End

Success and failure are friends. You cannot separate them. If you want success, then you must embrace failure.

Why is that? Because success comes after failure. Growth happens after mistakes.

That is why you should not be afraid to fail. Yes, it is not comfortable. It is embarrassing. It makes you look stupid.

It is okay. If you want to succeed in your life, you cannot stop it from happening. You cannot stop failure from visiting you.

When it happens, to move forward, embrace what happened. Do not try to keep it from other people, especially those who can help you.

If they can help you learn from your failure, then bring them in. Do not be too big to learn from other people.

Just because you are not where you are supposed to be, that doesn’t mean you are a failure. No, you are not. You are a learner. You are on a journey, a journey that will never end.

Because failure will never stop.

Remember, failure is not about you. It is about getting better. It is about trying new things.

According to Maulana, ‘… failure is no disaster, for it only serves to make one into a more profound, thoughtful person.’ I agree. If you want to improve yourself, you must embrace failure.

To do that, when you fail, just see it as an opportunity to learn more about what you are doing, to ask more questions, to learn more about yourself, and to learn more about the world around you. And it is.
