A short transcript excerpt from a Holly Furtick YouTube video asserting that true change must start with oneself. She describes the tendency to try to change others, how that leads to becoming 'nagging and manipulative' or 'stubborn and withdrawn,' and argues blaming others prevents real progress in relationships and personal life.

Chapters

In life. The most difficult lesson of all for me has been to understand that at the end of the day, the only person that I can really change is me. But it's not fun to change me. It's easier to try and change others and hope that when others change, my life will improve, right? But when I place my focus on all the things that everyone else needs to change, what happens is I become someone I don't wanna be. I become a nagging and manipulative woman. And then sometimes I give up on the nagging and the manipulation. I just become stubborn and withdrawn. And then I wonder why I'm never really making any progress in my relationships or in my personal life. Because when I blame others actions for my problems, I can never experience real change in my life.
