People can change?

[~KAGE-008]

Do you believe in the saying 'People can change when they want to after making a mistake'?

 

[Jazzy]

The key words are when they want to. Some people learn from their mistakes and others don't. Some people are willing to change a negative into a positive. Some people will get stuck in the unwillingness to see other opinions and always think YOU are the bad guy. You need to be willing to open yourself up and work things out. Again, some people will not do it. Those people, I avoid like the plague.

Well, the people that are stuck in a vicious cycle have a very hard time changing...

People can change but it has to be done in there own time. And Only if they are willing.

This, essentially. The brain works in a way where it literally forms physical grooves in its tissue and that is why it continues to do what it does because that is what it is used to/learned/chemically altered to do, etc. If a person wants to change, they usually can, but some just simply don't put in the effort and make excuses.

people cannot change, personality wise and nature wise
you are born with it all and you cant erase it, you just cant

all people can do is hide their true colors and put up a mask
pretend to be something else
but inside you will always be the same​

People change with time. Not 100% change, but they change with time and age.

I disagree.

I agree.
