I really should embrace change as a part of my normal life

I have long insisted that we should all strive to evolve as individuals. For various reasons, I have not been following my own advice. This includes problems that I have with the response to change. As one of my many self-evaluations, I have decided to look into what kinds of changes I really should make in my life. Unfortunately, obstacles will likely be too much for me to overcome.

We should all strive to evolve as individuals. How many times have I said that? Unfortunately, this does not reflect how I have lived my life.

I would be lying if I said that I like my life. The truth is that I have reached a point at which I need change. There have been numerous issues holding me back, such as the uncomfortable attention that tends to come with change.

In recent years, I have discussed the possibility of pursuing a year of change. If I could justify such a year, that would at least be a move in the right direction. To be perfectly honest, it likely still wouldn't be enough.

I would prefer finding a way to make change a part of my normal life. Perhaps a year of change could help normalize the idea of change in my life. Ideally, the pursuit of change wouldn't end with the year. I would like change to be viewed as a part of who I am. I would like it if any change that I am curious about could be pursued without those around me turning every change into a huge deal.
