Quote meaning
Changing and improving go hand in hand. If you want to get better at something, you’ve got to be open to change. And if you're aiming for perfection (whatever that means to you), you need to embrace change constantly.

This idea was famously echoed by Winston Churchill, who knew more than a thing or two about adapting. He led Britain during some of its darkest hours, and he understood that staying the same wasn’t an option if you wanted to succeed—or sometimes, just survive.

Let's take a real-life example to see this in action. Think about the tech industry. Companies like Apple or Google are always rolling out new updates, tweaking their products, and pushing the envelope. Remember the first iPhone? It was revolutionary. But imagine if Apple had stopped there, never releasing any updates or new versions. They’d be a footnote in history, rather than a juggernaut. They keep changing, they keep improving, and that’s why they stay on top.

Now, how can we take this wisdom and use it in our lives? Start small. Pick an area where you want to improve—maybe it’s your fitness, your job skills, or even your relationships. Don't be afraid to try new approaches and see what works. It might feel uncomfortable at first, but that’s part of the process. Change is rarely easy, but it’s always necessary.

Here’s a story to bring it home. Picture this: You’re in your mid-thirties, stuck in a job you don’t particularly love. It pays the bills, sure, but it’s not fulfilling. You’ve been doing the same thing for ten years and you’re good at it, but you’re not growing. One day, you decide enough is enough. You start taking night classes in something you’re passionate about—let’s say graphic design. It’s tough juggling work and study, but you stick with it. Fast forward a year: You’ve got a portfolio that you’re proud of and you land a job in a design firm. It’s a whole new world, and sure, you’re the newbie again, but you’re learning every day and loving it. That’s the power of change.

Change can be scary—no doubt about it. But it’s a necessary part of improvement. In fact, without it, stagnation is inevitable. So, if you’re aiming for your own version of perfection, remember: it’s about changing often, learning from those changes, and constantly evolving.

So, let’s not get too comfortable. Embrace the idea that to improve, we need to change. And to be perfect, well, we need to do it often. Try it out in your own life. You might just find that those little changes lead to big improvements. And who knows? You might even start to enjoy the ride.
