Change occurs on a continuum and does not move in a straight line.

About This Quote

Change occurs on a continuum and does not move in a straight line. This is true whether it’s something as simple as changing the channel or as complex as changing one’s life. Just like change does not move in a straight line, neither can we expect things to always move in the direction we want them to. But unlike change, which is inevitable, we can choose how to respond to change.
