The only constant in life is change.

But how do we master this change

without being mastered by the fear of change?

Change consists of 4 phases.

Find out which phase you are currently in

and how that helps you to overcome your fear.🧵👇

Why are so many people afraid of change or even trying to avoid it?

Because fear and persisting in the status quo serve a function:

• Protection from unpleasant feelings and disappointment.
• Staying in the comfort zone where we are (supposedly) safe.
• Exercising control in situations we are familiar with.
