I can't go back to yesterday - because I was a different person then.
All of us every single year, we're a different person. I don't think we're the same person all our lives.
It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you've known forever don't see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on.
We change our behavior when the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of changing. Consequences give us the pain that motivates us to change.
You always want to be better than you are. No matter what, I think that's important.
The fact is that five years ago I was, as near as possible, a different person to what I am tonight. I, as I am now, didn't exist at all. Will the same thing happen in the next five years? I hope so.
We are always in a perpetual state of being created and creating ourselves. (p. 221)
We are living through one of the most fundamental shifts in history- a change in the actual belief structure of Western society. No economic, political, or military power can compare with the power of a change of mind. By deliberately changing their images of reality, people are changing the world.
But people themselves alter so much, that there is something new to be observed in them for ever.
The gospel must be preached afresh and told in new ways to each generation, since every generation has its own unique questions. The gospel must constantly be forwarded to a new address, because the recipient is repeatedly changing his place of address.
No matter who you are, no matter what you do, you absolutely, positively do have the power to change.
No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don't.
No matter what we've done or where we've been, every single one of us can change.
For above all, love is a sharing. Love is a power. Love is a change that takes place in our own heart. Sometimes it may change others, but always it changes us.
In the end, it is important to remember that we cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are.
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.
Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn't stop for anybody.
Throughout history, the really fundamental changes in societies have come about not from the dictates of governments and the results of battles, but through vast numbers of people changing their minds, sometimes only a little bit.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
Build what you want to see in the world.
I'm not really opposed to people changing their minds. I'm much more concerned with people who never change their minds no matter what new information is available.
Some people change when they think they're a star or something.
What goes around, comes around.
People changing because they think they should is not a good idea, because I just don't think they should, really.
