Change is inevitable; it is happening around us. So whether you like it or not, change will still happen. And oftentimes the only way to survive in this highly competitive world is to embrace change.

But why do we have to change?

Humans are creatures of habit. We find comfort and security in doing things that are familiar to us. More often than not, there are a lot of things that we do every day that do not even accomplish anything for us anymore. We just keep on doing them because we are used to doing them.

If you evaluate your personal or professional life, you might discover that your life, work or ministry has become stagnant. Maybe you are doing the same old job, making the same old product, saying the same old lines, selling things the same old way, and giving your customers the same old service. Maybe when you wake up in the morning, you are not excited to get out of bed anymore because you know that you will still be doing the same old routine. If you feel that your situation is frustrating, then I have good news for you. You don’t have to stay miserable just because you are stuck in a rut. You can get out of it. Just acknowledge that change is happening around you and you have to learn to accept change and embrace it.

You may be telling yourself that you can’t change anymore because you’re already old and you feel that it’s too late. Or you feel that you don’t have the capacity to learn anymore. Well, you just have to throw away your old mindset and change it with a new one. Change is possible not just for the select few but for everyone. You just have to want it.

But why change? Just for the sake of changing? Well, wanting to get out of your old, boring routine could be a start. But your motivation for change should be more compelling than just wanting to break free of old routines. It should be so powerful that it brings so much excitement and hope into your life.

No other motivation could be more powerful than your vision. You want to change because you have a new purpose in life. You want to change because you have a goal. You want to change because there’s a new challenge that stirs up the passion in your heart. You want to change because God has given you a vision.
