NEWSPOT DAILY TONIC:Change is universal, unavoidable, frequently terrifying, and often beautiful By Bishop Duke Akamisoko

Change is universal, unavoidable, frequently terrifying, and often beautiful in ways we cannot anticipate.
Yes, Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore. Life will only change when you become more committed to your dreams than you are to your comfort zone. Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. If you wait, all that happens is you get older. Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself. Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me. Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. All great changes are preceded by chaos.Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them. They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom. There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. People wish to be settled; only as far as they are unsettled is there any hope for them. It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too. Some people don’t like change, but you need to embrace change if the alternative is disaster. Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change. Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts. No matter who you are, no matter what you did, no matter where you’ve come from, you can always change, become a better version of yourself. Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change. Each person’s task in life is to become an increasingly better person. Make the most of yourself…. for that is all there is of you. Change your thoughts and you change your world. Nothing happens unless something is moved. If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living. We know what we are but know not what we may be. Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don’t.
Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn’t stop for anybody. 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. To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly. They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. Stepping onto a brand-new path is difficult, but not more difficult than remaining in a situation, which is not nurturing to the whole world . Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change. Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong.. Change is inevitable. Growth is optional. Growth and comfort do not coexist. In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or step back into safety. If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living. Dreams are the seeds of change. Nothing ever grows without a seed, and nothing ever changes without a dream. When you embrace change you will begin to see it as an opportunity for growth. Change is growth. For me it has been a very spiritual and musical rebirth. There is nothing permanent except change. True life is lived when tiny changes occur. When in doubt, choose change. All great changes are preceded by chaos. Just when I think I have learned the way to live, life changes. The changes we dread most may contain our salvation. Bending beats breaking.
You can make a new start today in all areas of your life. You can be courageous ! You can be hopeful! You can never give up! You can do the impossible ! You can excel! You can break new record ! You can life a joyful life – Yes you CAN!
