"自分のたわごとにうんざりすることから始まらない人生の変化を見たことがない。"
— Elizabeth Gilbert
Simplified Meaning:
People only start making big changes in their lives when they get fed up with their own excuses and bad habits. Imagine someone who always says they will start eating healthy but never does because they keep making excuses like "I'm too busy" or "It's just one cookie.” One day, they look in the mirror and realize they don't feel good about themselves anymore. This frustration pushes them to finally stick to a better diet and exercise plan. Likewise, if a person is always late to work, they're likely to change only when they get in trouble or realize they might lose their job. The key idea is that true change happens when someone truly gets tired of the way things are and decides to take action. This advice can be used by anyone who feels stuck and wants to improve their life but hasn't yet made the effort to do so.
