The Power of Adaptability in Life Transitions

Humans have a unique ability to adapt to various circumstances, which sets us apart from other species. However, despite our adaptability, we often resist change due to evolutionary triggers that make us cautious. This resistance can prevent us from fully embracing life transitions. It's important to recognize that our capacity to change and evolve is far greater than we tend to believe. Studies have shown that people consistently underestimate their potential for change in the future, a phenomenon known as the end of history illusion. Understanding our resilience and adaptability can help us navigate transitions with more confidence and openness.
