The need for change bulldozed a road down the center of my mind

Why is it so hard to break free of a life that’s good enough to pursue the life we truly long for? We like to think these things are complicated, but the root cause is pretty simple: change is hard, so we tend to put it off until it becomes urgent. When the time comes to change, it becomes an overpowering presence; something that must be resolved one way or another. Maya Angelou put it this way:

It's even harder when you are unsure of exactly what it is that you want. I'm getting back on track, I just need a little time to figure it out.
