How do I change?
Hit rock bottom, or find yourself a teacher.
The Rav [my father and teacher] taught me early on, change is what happens when the pain of staying the same is too great. The moment we can't "take it anymore" is the moment we start giving and transforming.
A far less painful route is to develop a personal relationship with someone you respect or admire. Getting to know someone that has been where you want to go, whose 'energy' inspires you, is a great way to accelerate change in your life.
Today, if you have that someone in your life, re-dedicate yourself to putting time and effort into that bond. And if you don't, start putting your feelers out [ie. ask the Light] to send you someone from whom you can learn.
When you find the right teacher, real change will be inspired even without words.
