Change

I suspect people dislike change because it represents some sort of survival threat to the prehistoric parts of our brain.

On the other hand the modern section of our brain craves change to ameliorate boredom and who knows what else.

This Ying and Yang must play out differently in different people giving us the usual Bell curve in the population for preferences for or against change.

Indeed, even for one individual the attractiveness of change may wax and wane over time.

Is it worth fighting one’s natural tendencies against change in this regard? 

I think a little, yes.

Primarily because the threats of change sensed by our prehistoric brain have mostly been socialised out of our existence whereas the benefits of change are now hardwired into our economies.
