We all resist change

Whenever you say or do a thing there will be a few people, very few who might support or agree with you, but there will surely be lots of people, a whole lot of them, who will certainly oppose or disagree with you. But, then that’s only natural. It’s human tendency to resist change, to oppose new ideas, thinking and views. Normally people, especially in a society like ours, feel comfortable in an environment they are familiar with. Even a slight alteration in it makes them feel uneasy. They are highly protective of and possessive about their beliefs, values, perceptions, attitudes and even prejudices. Apart from that we are also traditionally apprehensive about taking risks. Charting any new course of action invariably involves risk. We always eye with suspicion anything that sounds, looks, feels or even seems different.
