If you try to change the environment single-handedly, the chances are you will fail. Instead, change yourself to suit your environment. As you do this, even the environment, which has been unfriendly to you, will mysteriously change and seem congenial and harmonious. [b]Am I right? Do you try to adjust yourself to the surroundings, environments, be it office, home or nature? Please respond and share your views.[/b] Thanks in advance. Professor ‘*Bhuwan*’. . Cheers have a lucky day ahead.

I have being through "I want to change the world" faze. You can do your thing but you can't do it by yourself! I recycle steel,aluminum,paper,cardboard and other medal. I wish i could do more with plastics but there is not a lot of recycling of plastic in certian areas which makes me angry! That is what I do concerning the enviroment.

yes, i agree with you 100%. the world isn't working with environment that well although i think improvements have been made to go in the right direction. your not just talking about nature though. your talking about everything which i still agree with you on.

Hi Professor, It's very true that we will not single-handedly change our surroundings and it's always best to adjust. I've found myself having to do this on many occasions and you are right, it will work every time if we are willing to follow this great truth. Blessings.

A Proverb says- if Muhammad doesn't go to the mountain, Mountain will shift to Muhammad. Meaning to say if the environment is not acceptable to me, I adjust myself to the environment.If we know the art of living by adjustment, it will reward us. We become more mature and surpass all the hurdles. If you find a hurdle surpass it, if a hurdle is above you, bend down and shift under and cross, if the hurdle is in front of you go the side and pass ahead, never halt at the block

Dear Professor Firstly I try to always surround myself in a positive environment, therefore no matter how difficult life is my mind can adjust rather quickly reminding myself of positivity. I am not a perfect person as yes sometimes I can feel a bit down due to circumstances. But due to my strong beliefs with prayer I find that my faith will be my destiny at some point, therefore it is quite easy for me to comfort myself in any environment.

I was raised with an old saying that goes: Don't buck the system. It means if you try to fight your environment around you you will lose in the end. We are supposed to learn to adjust to the system and learn how to succeed within it. I was introduced to this at a young age. I was born and raised in the congested city but spent many weeks and months out in the country on the farms of our extended families. I became very good at adjusting to my surroundings.

yes. Wherever I was no.1 I use to attempt to change provided people there cooperate. In other places where I was no.2 or 3, live with them in their own way, enjoy and get out. It all depends on mental strength, interest one has over issues. have a good day.
