Change is difficult and it can be complicated, but it is worth all the trouble and the hassle once the change is complete. In other words change is hard at first, messy in the middle, and gorgeous at the end. When we change we grow as a person, and as a friend or family member, but change can be hard to accomplish without a lot of hard work and motivation. If it were easy to change the way we think or act the world would be perfect, without any bad habits or negativity at all. Instead making changes is like climbing a tall mountain. First you need to develop a plan, then the plan needs to be implemented. A motivation to change is also crucial because if you are not dedicated to the changes that you want to make then these will not come about.
Consider change like a home renovation project. At first you may not even know where to start, so you identify areas that need to be improved. Once the process starts things can get quite messy as old walls are torn down and new ones built, but the end result is something completely different and much better than what you started with. If you can stay motivated and overlook the messiness while changes are being implemented then you will come out the other side gorgeous and new, a better person for having gone through it all as long as the changes that you make are positive.
