`` Before Something Occurs `` By Robert Frost Writes

Change is all things good and bad. It can bring joy and happiness, but while that happiness is taking shape it is being altered. By the bad change. Some try and run away from chance, never looking back as it slowly follows. While some embrace it, allowing it to swallow them. There is also a space between the two. That space between is where a majority of us lie. We run from what we presume is bad and welcome what we believe to be good. Yes most people react to chance differently. But we all are being treated with different kinds of change.

There are many reasons why people fear change. One of the major reasons is the loss of control that can be experienced during change. They fear that they will lose control of their territory and they lose their sense of self-defense (Ten Reasons People Resist Change). This is shown when in Jenny’s

What would life be like if people didn't undergo change? Many opportunities happen in life because of adjustments people make for themselves. In the short stories "Mirror Image" by Lena Coakley and "Saturday Climbing" by W.D. Valgardson the protagonists Alice and Barry both have struggles with the major changes happening in their life. Throughout their stories, they become less pessimistic, they adress their problems and they gain a newfound confidence and trust in others. Change can be extremely difficult, but its a necessary step towards a positive life.

Throughout my live, my behavior towards change has evolved into a more mature acceptance of the inevitable. As an adolescent, I failed to contemplate the reasoning behind changes that occurred within my life. I

Trying new things, like a new home, a new job, or a new hobby are all things that can change people and that can be a challenge. New ideas, new people, new rules, and really anything that is different can change people. Change can be a good thing or a bad thing. Nevertheless, change is inevitable and it can’t be avoided. Take King George III for example.

Through obstacles, people learn how to adopt or change in order to get through difficult situations. In addition, they might change in order to avoid similar future obstacles. People change not only to overcome a bad situation, but also to evolve into something greater than they were yesterday. They change in order to gain opportunities and to create a way for future generations. Furthermore, growth, is a part of the process of changing. With that being said, in order to grow and realize the significant and the unimportant aspects of live, change is inevitable. Therefore, whether we embrace it or resist it, change is unavoidable, and it is likely to be devastating if rejected. Lastly, people change based on how they are being treated, their environment, and also though influences. Change is one aspect of life that human cannot

Over time, people change and so do their roles in society. They may change because of their experiences. They become wiser and gain more experience, as they get older. Also, they may change because they have to adapt to their surroundings to help themselves and the people around them. In his novel The Grapes of Wrath, John Steinbeck writes about a family going to California during the Great Depression and their experiences.

Our everyday life becomes a routine that we learn to live off of. However, when that routine goes through a change we must find a way to accept it and move on. Change is inevitable and people react differently to it. Some accept the change and move on with their life, while others get stuck in a denial stage. This is evident in “ Lord Of The Flies” by William Golding, as the boys land on an island with no adult to set rules for them and tell them how to behave, like they were used to.

Change is Necessary Change is something that everyone does in their lives. It requires acceptance, and overcoming the new way of life, no matter how big or small the action, it does change something. With bigger changes, it requires more time to accept and overcome but its apart of life. This became evident in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, a book that shows these boys dealing with the change in events. It also seems to relate to my life as well in a sense, my friend passed away from a swimming accident and it took a while to deal with this change in my life.

Change is difficult. Walking with people through change can be challenging and often draining. Bringing change, that persists is even harder. Most people resist even when they see the need for change and believe that it has to occur (p. 52).

The reality of change is a scary but a necessary situation during life. It brings people together through hard times, like hurricane Katrina. It could tear a society apart as it did to the Roman Empire when it fell into the wrong hands of a blood thirsty dictator. Changes could be harmless, in the sense that human life didn’t die because of it, like East Africa transitioning from a jungle to a grassland. Changes sometimes go unnoticed, like the sky changing from sunny to partly cloudy. Throughout all these different kinds of changes, people react in different ways and may make hard, indecisive decisions on how to solve or deal with the problem or issues. Change effects humans differently throughout time or in a matter of an over night experience,

Situations in life often elicit for change, whether it is growing through life or making the decision to conform or shy away from “societies norms.” As anything in life these both call for change, whether it is a change in attitude or mood, things such as these are major influential factors. In the words of Albert Camus, “In order to exist, man must rebel, but rebellion must respect the limits that it discovers in itself - limits where minds meet, and in meeting, to exist”, his words illustrate a very profound meaning but it is simply stating is, as people if we ‘live’ searching for meaning or the meaning of life, we will never live. We live in a society where we have the ability to choose and to make decisions, which often or not

It is in human nature to abhor boredom and predictability that result from daily routine .Yet , when it comes to making changes and venturing out of one ‘s comfort zone , most people will feel inclined to resist change, despite their prodigious desire to implement it .So why do we resist change ?

The reason one wants to change is because many people believe that this change will benefit them in multiple ways such as helping them achieve other goals (2000). In addition, I agree that failure in self-change can result in the false-hope phenomenon. Trottier, Polivy and Herman support the theory of false-hope by emphasizing that many people continue to make attempts to change themselves despite the amount of failures they have had in the past. People keep attempting to change because at some point in this process they had short-term success and believe that they will be able to attain their goal in the future (2009). This phenomenon can result when one has unrealistic expectations that they are not able to meet which creates feelings of frustration, discouragement, and failure (Polivy & Herman, 2000). Failure can result from lack of willpower and is more difficult than success, as success results from greater personal effort (Polivy & Herman, 2002). A common characteristic of false-hope phenomenon is overconfidence which leads to overestimating the amount, ease, and speed in which one can accomplish self-change (Polivy & Herman, 2000). I agree that to change one’s self people must understand that changing is a difficult process and they need to have realistic expectations about the amount of change that will happen as well as the amount of time

This book, by Spencer Johnson, reveals the truths about how we deal with change that happens in our lives which effects us in so many ways, either positively or negatively. The book takes an amusing approach to what happens when you don’t adapt to change and what happens when you do. In the book, cheese is used as a metaphor for what you want to have in life. All my life I wanted the nice house, the beautiful wife, the kids, money, the dog, the nice tuck to pull the nice boat, the great career, and so on , and so on. To me, it’s human nature to want those things and I eventually got all of those things and then some….. More on that later. There was another metaphor in the book, which was the maze.
