The most common excuse for failure I’ve heard is that people don’t change. Bullshit!

People do change. Every second, every day, every month, every year. People change a little all the time and dramatically due to some major events.

The only thing you need in order to change yourself is wanting it badly enough. If you think that your laziness is on your way to success, change! Don’t say “that’s just how I am.” If you are not satisfied with yourself, you can do better.

I lost 30 pounds 3 years ago, because I got tired of being overweight. Unfortunately, this change had also turned me into an asshole. Luckily though, I fell in love soon after that, which caused me to change again to a good guy.

Since I came to Canada, I’ve changed a lot too. I adopted values of gift giving and selflessness, which were quite uncommon to me.

Start now

If there is anything about you that you’re not happy about, change yourself. You can. I believe in you. If you need help, ask for it. But do not, please, do not leave everything the way it is. You deserve better.

And don’t wait for the new year, Monday, tomorrow or even dinner. Start the change this very second.

Good luck!
