When a part of us wants to change and another part of us don’t, then both parts have to compromise. We need to ask ourselves why does one part of us wants to change while the other doesn’t. The first part of us feels unchallenged, bored, unsatisfied and without purpose. The second part of us feels comfortable, content, more in control when things seem predictable. Sometimes, both parts interfere with the other one’s progress.
So when we think about wanting to make a change in our lives and then out of nowhere we begin feeling some anxiety or apprehension, then it is our clue that we need to listen to that part of us that’s causing the anxiety, and to assure that part of us that we’re considering a change to improve our situation in the long run. If we begin to feel the decreasing of anxiety, then the apprehensive part of us has agreed to comprise.
