Change is a natural part of life. As we grow older, our interests, habits, and even personalities often change. These changes can be caused by different things.

Our own experiences are another factor. Overcoming a difficulty or achieving a goal can make us more confident. For example, a student who used to be afraid of tests might become more relaxed after getting a good grade through hard work.
