I am being the Devil

Been working in corporate field for past 1 month and the first training session which was given here was based on "Changing".

Never understood a single word what the trainer told. Was talking about that you should change according to the new situation. Well, personally I hate the word changing. It is a negative word. As changing oneself; according to me is losing the identity. For me the correct word is adapting for the situation. Or as the quote say "Dont change yourself according to situation, rather make the situation change according to you."

I heard a story when I was small. It was about a saint and its attitude. He was bathing in a river and saw a scorpion drowning in water. He picked him up with his bare hands and the insect attacked with its sting. And because of this it felt off the hands of saint. But saint again saved it.

This was going on for a while as the saint picks it up, it used to bite him. A man was watching this and he walked up to the saint and asked him "Why are you so eager to save this insect, if it always hurts you?"

Saint answered "Its the nature of this insect to bite and its my nature to save if someone is in trouble. If he is not changing than how can I change"

So this story tells that you shouldn't change. But if we don't change we will stay behind in this rat race. So I am still confused and thinking that what is the perfect solution to my problem.

I have been forced to change by peers, family, friends. And if I dont that say I am being blemish.

I dont want to change and still want to succeed; so is there any way for the same ?
