How well you adjust to change?
How do you react to a change? Do you accept it easily or find it hard to adapt to different circumstances?
I’m pretty flexible when it comes to adapting to changes. I believe it has something to do with how I grew up. I was constantly told as a child that I move at too slow of a pace for life, that if I am to succeed in life, I must move at a faster pace. Well, I’m moving fast now, maybe too fast. At work, I can learn by watching and doing. At home, in the garden, I learn by conducting experiments, if it doesn’t work, it will never be done again.
When it comes to changes, I can either accept it quickly and easily or I can find some other way to work around the change. It truly depends on the change. There are some changes that would take me a while to get used to. I can’t name one off the top of my head because eventually, the change will get forgotten and will be accepted as the new normal.
Do I like changes?
I don’t think there’s a sane person in this world that would say he/she like changes. Sure, some changes break the monotony of life while some changes may be life-altering.
I remember during the two times when I was planning to move out, at least 20 miles away from my mom, I was would spend the nights processing the changes that would take place while trying to solve all the problems I might encounter. At times, I felt like I was crazy for taking on such a monumental change in my life. How do people do this? Without support from someone such as a parent? I suppose those people just go for it, rip off the bandaid, and adapt to the sudden changes in their lives. Alas, such change did not happen to me.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Yinglan! Change – if it’s our choice is easy while if it is forced on us, we find it hard.
