I don’t know about you, but I am not a fan of change. When people ask me, “What is new and exciting?” I cringe. If I can say, “Nothing”, that makes me the happiest.

I love routine and ritual until the cows come home. Maybe a tad dull and boring, but I’m okay with that.

The problem is that when something changes or a challenge surfaces when you have my view of change one might tend toward a fixed mindset, which means you might try to avoid the challenge and not tackle it in a way that promotes growth and opportunity. This way of thinking does not serve us in the long run. It adds to stress and can make us feel stuck and even helpless.

If we want to have less stress and boost our resilience, we need to be aware of our mentality and develop a growth mindset instead.
