What if I don't want to change anymore?

[poltr1]

I think I've reached a point in my life where I'm content with who I am and where I are. I'm not exactly happy, but at the same time, there's no drive to improve myself. I've been doing that for years, and it's time for a break. Maybe it's a plateau. Or maybe I have enough to work on right now.

I'm sure there are people out there who will ask me, 'What's at risk if you change any further?" Right now, I'm feeling that other people may want me to change, and invite me to change, but ultimately, I have to *want* that change. And right now, the answer is, "I don't want to."

If you're content with who you are then it's cool to not change. I just would say just don't steel yourself AGAINST change because it might just happen on its own, or circumstances might change to where you need to again.

I would definately agree. In addition, change is inevitable because nothing in life is static - not even oneself. The movie What The Bleep Do We Know is an excellent synopsis. Also, supposedly, we shed every cell in our bodies every 7 years, so you are literally not the same person you were 7 years ago, 14 years ago, 21 years ago, etc... So, when (not if) change happens, I would say the difference is in how one makes use of it.

Really not sure what to say, change is part of life, it's akin to growth. We can't simply not change. Yeah ok, active vs passive etc etc. Interesting stement none the less.
