Change is uncomfortable and challenges ones comfort-zone, paradigm and triggers the fear of failure mechanism most humans have. "It's easier to stay in place than push boundaries because what if I don't like it, I'm not good at it or I fail through inability."

I often say activity creates activity when it comes to most things, professional and personal, and the same can be said for change. Changing mindset for instance can open new paths of opportunity which can bring about changes for the positive, or indeed negative, however in accepting change one must also accept/expect challenge and possible failure. Doesn't mean they should stop though. Failure brings opportunity which brings change, which can bring success, or failure. Fall three times, get up four.

Good post brother, and one that brings many challenging thoughts to mind.
