"It's the most unhappy people who most fear change"

- Mignon McLaughlin

About this Quote

This quote by Mignon McLaughlin talks to the idea that those who are most unhappy in life are the ones who fear change the most. This is because modification can be seen as a threat, and those who are already dissatisfied might be more likely to be risk-averse. They may be afraid of the unknown, and of the possibility that the change might make their lives worse. They might also be afraid of the effort and energy that change requires, and of the possibility of failure. It is easy to understand that those who are currently dissatisfied would be more reluctant to take dangers and make changes, as they might be afraid of making their lives even more hard. However, it is very important to remember that modification can likewise cause favorable results, and that taking risks can be a necessary part of development and development.
