About This Quote

The quote, “We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change,” is an inspirational one. However, it does include a rather negative implication. The implication is that if we don’t see the problems and try to change them, then we simply will not be aware. If we do not see the problems and cannot help but change, then it seems that the power to change lies with us.
