It’s hard to change, but it’s nearly impossible to change when the person who wants you to change shows no signs that they would ever consider changing.
Because the funny thing about people who hold an opinion is that they believe they’re right. However, if both sides stubbornly dig in, neither side will ever change.
We all want to know we're being heard and for you or me to change, we're tacitly acknowledging that we aren't perfect (hard).
Perfect people are scary, be open to your own imperfections.
Next time you are trying to convince somebody to change, open yourself to change as well, and watch how much differently things move.
