By Deepak Chopra, MD Many, perhaps most, people would like to change their =ives. They'd like the good parts to get better and the bad parts to go awa=. How you define these good and bad parts are entirely individual, reflect=ng the infinite diversity of human life. But consider yourself and take stock of where you are now. No one ca= do this realistically without wanting something to change. Yet after a ce=tain point most people realize that change is difficult, and the path to f=nding a better life is twisted and rocky. A certain percentage will simply decide that "people don't=change" is a fact of life. If you are a hard realist, you give up try=ng to change yourself, much less anyone else.
