Summary

Change is a natural process that can lead to true happiness by helping us reach our full potential. It is also the answer to solving many of our problems. Unfortunately, sometimes we are afraid to change. We become creatures of habit. We find ourselves feeling bored, unsettled, lonely, depressed, or out of control. We wonder if change will fling us from the frying pan into the fire, or we want to change, but we don't know how.
