Change is never easy. Whether it’s breaking a bad habit, starting a new routine, or improving a part of your life, something inside you always seems to push back. That “something” is your brain that is trying to protect you. The human brain is wired to favor comfort, safety, and familiarity over uncertainty, even when that familiarity keeps you stuck in patterns you want to escape. Understanding why your brain resists change helps you work with it, not against it turning struggle into sustainable growth.
