Once we are in a consolation zone, we are going to resist change. However when that consolation zone ceases to exist and it turns into insupportable, individuals will demand change. In November, that’s precisely what occurred and the voters rejected the established order.
Resisting change might be achieved by way of disruption, chaos, dysfunction and demonstrations, which all trigger additional polarization and hatred. A greater possibility can be to acknowledge that change is desired and to offer constructive enter on potential methods to search out frequent floor. Having a seat on the desk to barter change is healthier than not having any enter. We can’t hear once we are shouting at one another.
All of us need the identical staple items, however the distinction is how we navigate to get there. Change isn’t essentially what we want, however it’s what many Individuals demand.
