I don't really know about other people but I feel that  change happen sometimes when people are forced to! 

 I am one of those people, I became ill and was facing possible death. It is a very sobering situation, and it provided the enthuisiasm  for me to change. 

I have been trying to change alot of things that of late.

I was going to list all things that I am trying to change but instead how about how I have been making changes.
