"人々が変化を好むと言っても、あなたが変わるときはそれを好むが、彼らに変わってほしいときはそうではない。"

Simplified Meaning:

People often say they like new things and changes, but they really mean they like it when others change in ways that benefit them. They don't like it when they are the ones who have to make a change. Think about a workplace: when a manager asks employees to work differently, some might feel stressed or annoyed. However, if the manager offers them a raise, they are happy with this change because it benefits them. Similarly, in relationships, one partner might want the other to improve or do things differently. But when it's their turn to change, they might resist. To apply this to life, be aware that you might also prefer changes that favor you and be more understanding and open when changes require effort or adjustment from you.
