Out of the book "'the purpose-driven life"
There is no growth without change;there is no change without fear or loss;and there is no loss without pain.Every change involves a loss of some kind : You must let go of old ways in order to experiance the new .We fear these losses,even if our old ways were self_defeating,because like a worn out pair of shoes ,they were at least comfortable and familiar..
People often build their identity around defects.We say "'its just like me to be" and "'its just the way i am"' .The unconscious worry is that if i let go of my habit,my hurt,or my hang up,who will i be? This fear can definitly slow down our growth.
