Changing People

Every day we are Blessed to wake up, we have another opportunity to positively impact this world we live in. Although this isn't easy, we still have to try to make a difference in this life. As Gandhi and President Obama instructs us, "We must be the Change in this world we want to see." How difficult is that? It depends on you and the People around you. Because as the old adage goes, "Change is the only thing constant in the world." Things around you are always Changing, but some People around you aren't/won't. Which makes things very complicated, because if the world is Changing and you're Changing, to really leave your mark, you must this attempt feat of Changing People.

Now, let me be clear. There is a huge difference between Changing People for their betterment, and Changing them for your own personal gain. For instance, I don't believe People should have to Change to be in a relationship with you and I don't believe you should try to Change anyone for this type of situation either. When it comes to matter of the heart, People should be allowed to be who they really are. Alternatively, what I do believe, is there are some People who are complacent, lost, uninspired, depressed and without their own personal will to help themselves. These are the People that I believe we all must assist in Changing or helping them see that their is a way out or more to life then their current circumstance.

The key to Changing People is to be an example for them. If you are encouraging them be more assertive, to get involved, to take control of their circumstances and situations, you must be a person who has command of all those things. When Changing People you can't be a hypocrite! Oftentimes, your actions are going to be the key to the other person's will or inspiration to Change. But know, they have to want to Change first; you can't make them. It isn't easy Changing People, but it is fulfilling if you truly help them Change for all the right reason. Everyone needs someone to have their back and serve as their guide to get from where they have been, and where they are, to where they are going. Somebody somewhere helped Change you. Thus, it is imperative you give back and assists in this mammoth assignment of Changing other People. They could use all the help they can get, and so could you. Because you may be s/he that is in desperate need of Changing. Start first with you, before you try to Change anyone else.
