Share your opinion, scientific methods, or from your experience on how well each of us react to the inevitability of changes. Change in life, work, family, community..........?????
Depends on a type of a benefit(s) if any coming with a change(s)!
Change is required and will happen constantly so interactions with life changes must be positive because they are part of life that no one can ignore or stop.
The expectation of change is perceived more negatively than the change itself.
Resisting change takes more energy. Instead look at the benefits that change might bring as well as the acceptance of the inevitable fact that nobody is going to reverse the change. I am always reminded of the saying, "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade." It just means be flexible and open and view change as an opportunity rather than as a burden.
One of the inevitable changes is called life courses or a.k.a rites of passage. There are five stages in this passage, namely birth, puberty, marriage, ancestorship, and death. To react well we have to apprehend our roots of culture accordingly.
At a logical and functional level, better educated people are quite better understanding various changes happening in economics, social fabric, and political life. However, it doesn't mean they are easier adjusting to changes. The reason being, a better intelligence, education , and knowledge aren't sufficient enough as changes require to adjust not only through understanding of what's happening, but also, and in the first place - modification of the already established moral, ethics, and the entire set of values, all of which ought to be revisited and readjusted.
In that sense, less educated, less intelligent people are much more flexible, decisive, and prone to team up to go through this process rather collectively, than in a solitary way. Hence, different society levels have their own pluses and minuses in adapting to changes processes, that is it depends on the essence of the changes as well, and to what extent those changes dig into wellbeing of the different society levels and layers.
Life is constant change/permanent conversion (yin and yang) -everytime. In the small as well as in the big. When a cell stops the exchange with the outer milieu, the cell is dead. Change is inevitable because it is necessary for life. Standstill/Stagnation/stasis is associated with dead. (Ex)cahnge is associated with life. As more comfortable we go with this, as more we are alive.
It is very informative discussion. At a logical and functional level, better educated people are quite better understanding various changes happening in economics, social fabric, and political life.

In your post above you said just only one phrase: "It is a very informative discussion." The rest of your post is just a large quote from my post above on this thread. However, you are not mentioning my name. Looks like a naïve plagiarism to me. It would be so funny, if it weren't so sad.
He reacts according to his understanding of the necessity of change or it will be an obstacle to it
