Quotes About Change for Your 20s

A few ways to handle a big change

  • Name what is ending and what is starting. Both are real.
  • Keep one routine steady, such as sleep, a walk or a weekly call, while everything else moves.
  • Break the change into the smallest next step and do only that.
  • Tell someone. Changes feel lighter when someone else knows about them.
  • Give it time. Most new situations feel awkward for the first weeks.
