How do you change?

Posted:

Do you see yourself as you are? Have you ever been self-critically aware of yourself? Have you known  what you are—angry, jealous, envious, ambitious, hating, and all the rest of it? Now, what will make you change? Let us start with it. How do you change?  What makes you change? Do you change because it helpsyou? Do you change because it is pleasurable? Do you change because fear is involved? Or because you think that by changing, you will be a better man? Or because if you conform, you will get more money, you will be more respectable, and so on? Is that the way you change, if you have changed at all? And have you changed in anything? Do ask these questions, please. Don’t let me put these questions to you; you are asking the questions yourself. Have you changed in anything? And if you have, what made you change?The Collected Works vol XII, p 291
