Don’t Expect Everyone To Get On Board With Your ‘Changes’

You would assume a person who stops by a website like yourbetteryou.info is looking for tips for self-improvement. If this describes you, then congratulations on coming to the conclusion that you have a problem or, at least, a challenge that needs addressing.

But you cannot assume that by just declaring your plan for your better you that all of those around you will be for it.

Some will have issues with the plan, but some will truly have a problem with your need to have a better you because it triggers a need for them to evaluate a need for a better themselves. And that is asking a lot from others who believe they have no real problems, yet are constantly complaining about the real problems they don’t have.

So start your journey to your better you by only confiding in people who are willing to help you stay on the path. Granted, this may initially be people like personal development trainers (raising my hand now) who have a vested interest (that would imply potential income) in you getting into and keeping up with a program. But financial incentives aside, the good ones want you to see success for a variety of reason.

Once you start to show progress, then you should start to share your new found knowledge with those who want it. Don’t force yourself and your new lifestyle on those people you love who you feel need it, just do you. If they get inspired, they’ll come to you. If they don’t, they don’t. You should not have to cut a person out of your life unless they are actively holding you back, and if they just like to be the way they are, let it be.

Don’t shame them for wanting a double cheeseburger with triple bacon when your diet plan calls for a salad. It’s your changes that should be important to you, not their lack of changes based on your changes.
