The Chinese proverb "When the winds of change blow, some people build walls, and others build windmills" reminds us that challenges and change are inevitable—but our response defines the outcome.
Building walls represents resistance, fear, or an attempt to preserve the status quo, often rooted in discomfort with uncertainty. On the other hand, building windmills symbolizes adaptability, creativity, and turning potential disruption into opportunity.
This proverb encourages us to embrace change as a force that can be harnessed for growth, rather than something to be feared. Whether in life, work, or relationships, the choice is ours: to block the wind, or to use it to power something new.
