Changes Makes Life Interesting & Exciting

How many times in your life has something happened that caught you off guard? It happens quite frequently, doesn’t it? Sometimes this is pleasant. You are surprised positively by something that appears out of the blue. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Change is often negative and unpredictable.

In both cases, how you respond to change is entirely up to you.

You can look at any change as negative. Some people are so comfortable in their current situations that they decline even when offered an opportunity to improve them. Their safe but limiting comfort zone is good enough for them. 

There is a belief that even if a proposed change looks good, it might have negative repercussions. So these individuals prefer to move from the cradle to the grave with a quiet, limited, and some would say boring existence.

That’s entirely fine. The way an individual lives their life is up to them. These people often find it easier to deal with negative change because they have a preconceived notion that any change is likely to be negative. They expect it, so they take their lumps and move past it quickly.

Others look forward to change, even if it’s negative because it’s exciting. It makes them feel alive. They know they can’t grow if they’re not challenged. They’ve had tough things happen to them in the past, and they met the challenges head-on. They don’t go out looking for a negative change but view it with interest and determination when it happens.

A Life without Change Makes for a Boring Story

Do you have a favorite book? Is there a movie or genre of movies that you really enjoy? If so, it’s probably because the main character encountered a lot of change and disruption in the storyline. The protagonist almost always goes through change and transformation in a memorable story.

There probably aren’t too many people that want to read a book or watch a movie with a bland, boring character. If nothing happens, why are they riding along for the story? When a character in a movie or a book undergoes change, no matter what happens, the story is more interesting, and the character is more relatable.

You can label change whatever you like, good or bad. Since it’s inevitable, why not embrace it and consider it a possibility for an amazing transformation?

That attitude really wakes you up. It makes life more exciting and interesting. If change that’s out of your control will happen anyway, why not see what exciting reality you can create from that change?
