Blaise Pascal's 17th-century wisdom "the more it changes, the more it stays the same" reveals why we encounter the same issues despite changing circumstances. This recurring phenomenon happens because real transformation requires addressing underlying patterns rather than just changing our environment.

• Patterns repeat when they're not addressed - recurring tensions in new places are clues, not signs you're broken
• Real transformation happens beneath the surface - changing environments helps, but mindset must shift too
• Awareness is the real power move - noticing patterns breaks reactive cycles and enables learning
• We often chase change when what we really need is clarity about what keeps circling back
