the process of change...!

Its often difficult to bring about change in an individual,organization or a country. The baggage of past seems too heavy to be erased completely. In most cases, the absence of help from outside prevents the change from taking place. Its possible to design an elaborate change process but the lack of required 'activation energy ' prevents a person from jumping to the next level and with passage of time the person or society remains trapped in old habits.
However, there is a change dynamics which is evolutionary in nature and it affects everyone continuously. However , this process is slow and is primarily due to interaction between two cultures and changes in habits due to technological advances. But we can't rely on this process to rectify certain ills and shortcomings of our societies.
However, it is felt that it is possible to bring about change if a consistent and conscious effort is made and the problem is tackled at the root instead of attacking the symptoms. A very strong intervention is required to break the vicious cycle of old habits which may involve learning new skills and analyzing the old thinking in new lights . However,most change processes are painful and lengthy and the deficit of patience often comes in the way bringing about the full change.
