What a great idea to write a public diary

Today I'm starting to use italki as a method to learn English, cultures and new ideas.
I will try to write down one essay a day and I will appreciate your corrections and fresh ideas!
The first theme I would love to discuss is an adaptation to new situations. People often find it difficult to adapt to new situations. So why does it happen? What measures can we suggest to make it easier?

Changes always cause discomfort to people and sometimes it takes time to adjust to something new. However, modern life is extremely changeable and there is no other way than to adapt to any novelties in our life. So why is it so harmful and what can we do to make it less stressful?

First of all, it's hard to adapt because adaptation means changes and, of course, people don't want to give up their habits and their daily routine. As a result, they suffer from missing something dear. The next reason is our fear of everything that seems alien. To adapt successfully people have to accept unknown things and this leads to stress. In addition to this, many changes can come at the same time so the person needs to deal with all of them.

However, there are some solutions to how to cope with stressful situations while getting accustomed to a new reality. One is to find something fundamental and steady in your life. For example, your partner can support you when you change job or the country where you live. It might be also your religion or even your favourite sport. Something you can rely on will help you to cope with difficulties. Another good suggestion is to find all the information about the situation. Consequently, the fear of the unknown will reduce and it will be easier to adapt.

So, in my opinion, adaptation can be less stressful and damaging if people have both something to rely on and plenty of information about new situations.

That's it. Thank you for reading:)

Hello Polina,

Nice long essay about change. I agree with everything you say. Very few minor errors.
