Hi:

Yes I think that people can change, but it does not happen overnight. It takes more than desire and drive, it takes will and actions. Change is a process and most processes are no immediate, they take time.

Once some one is changing or has changes, as a very wise person told me once...

Do not trust the change right away. People can change for a day, a week, or even a month, but if they have not completely changes then this is a charade and one that cannot be kept up for long and then they revert back to who they really are. But do not trust right away for a day, a week, a month, if they truly have changed it will not be a struggle for them because it is not a charade, it is real and real things come as second nature to us. But if they still have their changed behavior after say 6 months, then I would begin to trust and believe that they have really changed.

Some one very recently told me that, it makes perfect sense to me and I understand that completely now and I am very grateful for that wise advice.

Be safe and be well

People change all the time. It is either for the better or worse. Hopefully for the better. Change is growth. We all should want to grow as human beings. At least those of us who are at least a little bit sane. On the other hand, not all things about people change. Some things about the people we like and hang with , we do not want to change. There is something to be said for the friend that is steady as a rock on some things. That is why we depend on them as friends.

Absolutely - people can change. I see it every day in my work. I work for a law firm that handles abuse/neglect/dependency cases. I see women and men overcome their addictions and their criminal ways & get their children back. Granted, it is not the majority of the cases, but there are some. If people have a true desire to change, they definately can with God's help, help from friends, family, support groups and a lot of hard work.

Yep, they can. There is a book on it actually. In sum, it basically says that if you focus on doing a new habit or focus on not doing a habit, you can change it within 2 weeks. This could go for anything really. I have the book somewhere.

No doubt about it, but like others have said, only if the change comes from within, no one person can change another or make another change.

Yes they can, but some may need to seek professional help, before they can actually change

People who have the will to change can change. But if they do not have any will to change, no they cannot change, they have to want to bring the change upon themselves, they have to want to make a differnce in their life.
