"Los cambios en nuestra vida deben venir de la imposibilidad de vivir de otra manera que no sea de acuerdo con las demandas de nuestra conciencia, no de nuestra resolución mental de intentar una nueva forma de vida."

Leo Tolstoy

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, we need to make changes in our lives because staying the same feels wrong or impossible. It's not enough to just decide in our minds to live differently; the drive to change should come from a deep sense of what’s right and what’s wrong inside us. Imagine someone who feels deeply uncomfortable eating meat after learning about how animals are treated. They don't just decide to become vegetarian because it seems like a good idea; they change because they can no longer live with eating meat in good conscience. Similarly, if you feel unhappy in a job because it violates your values, any change will be more successful and lasting if it comes from this discomfort rather than just a wish to try something new. This approach ensures that changes are deeply meaningful and aligned with your core beliefs.
