I feed on change.

Change doesn't bother me more with age. It makes me hungrier.

For some, even the smallest change jolts their nervous system.

Me, I chase change. Not out of recklessness. Respect for momentum.

From having my name changed when I was an infant, to changing schools three different times because we moved, change has always been a part of my life.

Change didn't shape me. It refined me.

Change wounds before it exposes.

Change brings friction, but I like the heat.

Others tighten their grip. I loosen mine.

They ask, “How do we keep this the way it is?” I ask, “What change will best serve us?”

Stop building to protect the past. Design to absorb the future.

I don’t love change because it's easier to roll with the tide.

I love change because change feels alive.

Change reveals what you are made of. Change sharpens your signal. Change forces clarity.

Markets shift nonstop, so the real edge is not holding still. The edge is adaptability.

I don’t chase certainty, I build capacity.

I don’t preserve last year’s version of me, I outgrow the old version.

Summary:

• Stability without growth equals decline.

• Adaptability beats preservation.

• Questions create direction, tests create proof.

• Design for future absorption, not past protection.

• Build capacity, outgrow old versions, keep moving.

Others future-proof. I future-obsess.
