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 will be carried out by way of disruption, chaos, dysfunction and demonstrations, which all trigger additional polarization and hatred. A greater choice could be to acknowledge that change is desired and to offer constructive enter on doable methods to search out widespread floor. Having a seat on the desk to barter change is best than not having any enter. We can’t hear once we are shouting at one another.
All of us need the identical basic items, however the distinction is how we navigate to get there. Change isn’t essentially what we want, however it’s what many People demand.
