The only constant thing in life is change

Change is the only constant in life. Over the years, we go through a multitude of experiences, which can affect us positively or negatively, depending on the interpretation we make of them and the way we deal with them.

Sometimes we feel less strong and with few abilities to overcome those daily “potholes.”, which leads us to feel frustration, stress, fear and discouragement. We believe, mistakenly, that the negative things that happen to us are eternal.

However, there is a healthier way, both for our physical and mental well-being, to deal with changes in life and it is to adapt to the situation and consider it as an opportunity for personal enrichment. Since from all experiences we can learn something that allows us to advance and develop.

This way of facing changes will help us have a different vision of life, a less terrible or catastrophic vision.

Accept the change

Assuming the possibility that experiences are changing helps us accept them more easily. Once we manage to accept what happens to us, we will be prepared to emotionally distance ourselves from the problems and we will use all our resources to start looking for how to solve them.

The same thing happens with our past, with all the experiences that have shaped our personality and our way of being. Since people also change throughout life, or at least that’s how it should be. We can all change and improve day by day, but we need to be willing to do so with effort and perseverance, to correct our dysfunctional habits and become increasingly happier.

Learn from lived experiences

Since we were little we lived experiences of all kinds, the first within our family. The emotional ties established with parents in the first years of life are essential for future development. In this sense, it is worth highlighting the importance of parents caring, loving and paying attention to the needs of their children, so that they grow up healthy and happy.

So, As time goes by, we will form different “schemes” or sets of ideas about the functioning of people and the world around us. These schemes will have a great influence on the way we interpret our daily lives and our lives.

But we should not identify only with our experiences, because although they are part of our past, they do not have to continue controlling our present. Perceiving the possibility of change in our lives makes us feel freer and less tied to suffering.

We can become braver and braver people and learn from every mistake. and we will become more independent and brave beings. With this we will not feel more capable in all aspects of our life. We will gain self-confidence and self-efficacy.

Change is constant in life

The only constant thing in life is change and from this we can learn many things. To do this, we have to be critical of ourselves, evaluating our own behaviors, feelings and thoughts. Which allows us to learn, unlearn and relearn different ways of acting, until we find the most realistic, positive and, consequently, adaptive combination.

In our hands is the ability to improve and thus also improve our way of perceiving reality. Consequently, we will be able to get closer and closer to our ideal life.

The possibility of achieving the combination that makes us happier is within our reach. There is no need to be afraid, change is good. Be the architect of your life.
