ANECDOTE

Child Reacts To Sudden Change

  • A doctor’s son complained that his mother “has changed” after returning from a retreat and stopped speaking negatively.
  • The boy felt uncomfortable because the mother’s sudden, drastic change disrupted familiar family dynamics.
INSIGHT

Changer Bears Responsibility

  • The first responsibility lies with the person making a conscious positive change, not with others to accept it.
  • Imposing new habits on family causes resistance and conflict rather than smooth transition.
ADVICE

Lead By Quiet Example

  • Do not impose your new habits or preach them to family; avoid forcing others to follow immediately.
  • Instead, live the change quietly and let your behaviour demonstrate the benefits over time.
