Famous philosophers state that only in the change of our body, mind, and spirit, can we be who we are supposed to be. We are programmed to want to do "slacker" type things that is our make up, as human beings. In order to do right by our principles, there are particular things we must choose to let go of. This is very difficult, yet very rewarding.

But we all very well know that attitudes and behaviours are the results of our thoughts and beliefs. And we do need to leave behind our attitudes, but we do not necessarily have to leave behind our beliefs- just expand them or add onto them.
The most difficult thing to change is your thoughts and beliefs of something. That's why we say people have 'closed-minds'- they know that changing thoughts is difficult, if not impossible- so they stick to their beliefs and thoughts, and thus creating the attitude of their beliefs in their own lives- which can be many things.
Okay, I'll stop babbling now, it's late- but I do understand what you are saying, pinkie. I was just adding onto it.
