Change is hard. Logically, we know what we should do, but our feelings about doing it make our decision for us. How you feel in the moment is almost never aligned with your goals and dreams. If you only act when you feel like it, you will never get what you want. You must learn how to separate what you feel from the actions that you take. You can't control how you feel. But you can always choose how you act. . Mel Robbins
About This Quote

An interesting quote. I think the author is trying to say that if you don’t change or act differently, then you will always remain the same whether you want to or not. You can't just sit there and wallow in the past. If you want to get better at something, then you must do something different than what you’re currently doing.
