Because the environment is external. You can leave it. You can move house, change jobs, end the relationship, or start over somewhere new. But you are internal. You can’t leave yourself. You’re the one piece of luggage you can’t abandon at the old apartment. Real change begins when we stop believing that every problem is somewhere out there and start having the courage to ask what might need to change in here. Sometimes the breakthrough you’re looking for isn’t a new environment. It’s becoming a different person in the same one. #SelfAwareness #breakthecycle  #EmotionalIntelligence #GrowthMindset #mentoring
