Do you think anyone is capable of “changing”?

[Danny_dan92]

Looking back in my life, I’m not the same man I was when I was say in my early 20’s


I was overall a more carefree and happy man then.


Nowadays I’m more stern and serious (maybe being in the marines played a role in that) but I digress. I have been told I don’t smile as much anymore.


To the question, if someone tells you “they changed” do you buy it immediately or are you more skeptical?

[Phoenix98]

I mean I'm certainly not the same man I was 10 years ago. So I think people are capable of changing the question is did they actually change or are they just saying that.

And a short meeting isn't really gonna give you the answer to that.

[Nirmroth]

Yeah I feel like I changed a lot in the recent 4-2 years. A lot more happier now.

Why?

[Nirmroth]

Was addicted to videogames, spending much if not all of my free time gaming it affecting social and work relationships. Was a cycle were the more I felt depressed the more I would game. Been doing that since I am 12.
Then my ex broke up with me over it and while that was the lowest point ever it gave me the kick I needed. I stopped gaming completly, have a new great job now, more friends, going to the gym looking great and been traveling a lot not hoarding money anymore but spending it to enjoy life. Recently I even meet an amazing girl wasn't for long but showed me what could be.

Everyone is not only capable of change, but are constantly changing over time. It’s not always something we’re conscious of, but when we are it can make some very welcome changes to our lives.

[LazerBean]

I do think everyone is capable of changing to some extent. But I also think generally people don't stray far from where they were, and that the change is often predictable

[Manipgot]

I can buy it. I think life changes us. It’s not weird at all.

for example I use to have a lot more energy mentally emotionally and physically. Now I just don’t. And I don’t have an explanation for it either. I just lost so much energy I never imagined I would. When you’re young you just think you’ll always have vigor and vitality. You never know how life will change or break you down. Or when. I thought I’d be an old lady when I’d lose my energy.

[whereismyjohnny]

Yes. Everybody is.

[Danny_dan92]

Agreed

[Likes2drive]

People change to a point but it’s so gradual and after your late 20s you’re probably not changing anymore

[mandyfire98]

Everybody is capable of change.

[LiamJHayden]

Most if not all are capable.
