“People never change because they are under threat or under duress. Never. They change because they see something that makes their life seem valuable enough to start moving toward a life worth living”
— Robert Downey Jr.
Simplified Meaning:
When people are scared or stressed, they don't usually change their ways. Instead, they change when they discover something exciting or important that gives them a reason to improve their lives. For example, think of someone who always eats unhealthy food. They won't start eating better just because a doctor warns them about health risks. But, if they find a sport or activity they love and want to perform well in, they might start eating healthier to support this new passion. This shows that positive motivations are more powerful in creating change than fear or pressure. To apply this, you should look for what really excites or matters to you, and let that be your reason to improve or change your habits.
