Change Begins Within Us

CHANGE; IT STARTS WITH ME

Change, it starts with me.

 What's the first thing that 

comes into your mind about

 that phrase? What is your 

insights about it?

 Well for me, this phrase means

 a lot. In my own opinion, 

if you really want to change 

something

 in your life, it must begin with

 you, yourself.

Change. If you want a change, you 

should start it with yourself. 

But how can we change a thing, on our own? 

According to the book that I'm 

still currently reading called "Atomic Habits", 

if you want to change something in your life,

 it always starts with yourself.

 Fixing your daily lifestyle, changing your habits,

 improving your routine and so on. 

It said there that tiny and small changes make a big difference. 

For example, you want to loss weight, so what you're gonna do is to 

start it with yourself. 

Start motivating yourself that you can do it. Start dieting, exercising, 

and changing your habits. 

This is what the book is trying to say, to start changing our habits for

 us to achieve our goals.

Like for us students, our goal every quarter's test is to have a high 

score on exam, 

so in order to achieve that goal, we must change our habits. 

Habits that are unnecessary and unimportant. 

If we want to change something around us, we must start it with 

ourselves. For example, last April of 2022 

the #lettheearthbreathe was trending because of the worsening of

 climate change

 that is happening to our world. 

This time, a lot of my friends of facebook shared and spread this

 awareness including me,

 which is very helpful in some ways. 

Like me, I started deleting all unnecessary messages, emails and files

 in my phone,

I'm also trying my best to not use a lot of plastics.

But then, at the end of the day, some people doesn't really do anything 

to help saving our planet. Like Mahatma Ghandi said, 

If you want to change the world, start it with yourself. Sharing and 

spreading awareness is not enough for us to save the world,

but doing some tiny changes and small things could.

In conclusion, change starts with us. Like John C. Maxwell said, “Most 

people want to change the world to improve their lives, 

but the world they need to change first is the one inside themselves.”

 You can't just have words, it must also be accompanied by actions.

 Actions that can make a great difference and change 

on you and to anything around you. 

We must always keep in mind

 that yourself is the key to change.
