Everyone seems to chant the mantra "Change is good, embrace change", I'm not actually too convinced by that.
That's ok, there's nothing wrong with that. Everyone's circumstances are different. Many change only when they have to. It has to do with goals, etc. I'm probably on the other end. (Sometimes if feels like a minority.) I like learning and looking for better ways to do things. I admit though, sometimes that takes me away from the job at hand.
