Why stay we on the earth expect to grow? Just about anyone would agree that growing is a good thing, but relatively few people dedicate themselves to the process. Why? Because it requires change, and most people are reluctant to change. But the truth is that without change, growth is impossible.

If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living. Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. It may mean a giving up of familiar but limiting patterns, safe but unrewarding work, values no longer believe in, relationships that have lost their meaning. "taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most." The real fear should be the opposite course.

I can't think of anything worse than living a stagnant life, devoid of change and improvement.

Growth is a choice.

Most people fight against change, especially when it affects them personally. "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."--- Leo Tolstoy.

The ironic thing is that change is inevitable. Everybody has to deal with it. On the other handz growth is optional. You can choose to grow or to fight it. But know this: People unwilling to grow will never reach their potential.

• Growth is a decision that can really make a difference.

Most people don't realize that successful and unsuccessful people do not differ substantially in their abilities. They vary in desire to reach their potential. And nothing is more effective when it comes to reaching potential than commitment to personal growth.
