Nothing in our physical, mental, spiritual, social or emotional life will change unless and until we change ourselves first. Most of us can identify circumstances in our lives that we want to change. However, we remain unwilling to change ourselves from the inside-out. Lasting change can never occur unless and until we change ourselves. And all lasting change comes from the inside - out.
People often go to great length to change the external circumstances of their life.
They change jobs, friends, spouses, the city they live in, the color of their hair, etc. Hoping some how that these external changes will result in a permanent change in their lives. Most of the time it doesn't work. Soon their lives are pretty much the same as they were prior to the change. When this happens they often blame others or life itself for their troubles.
