Change
 is the only constant, all of us must have heard of
this
 saying. Some changes in our
life
 occur due to inevitable circumstances, while others occur because of our choices.
Although
 a set of people believe in constant
change
 and wish to try new
things
 every now and
then
, others like to follow their routine
life
. In
this
 essay, I will examine both ways of leading
life
 and will state why I feel learning or going through different experiences makes your
life
 worthwhile. Those who like to carry on with their daily tasks in the same manner and do not wish to
change
 have a few reasons for doing so.
To begin
 with, they feel content and happy about their lives and their ways because according to them, they have worked hard and are at a stage in their lives where they should just live and enjoy rather than keeping themselves engaged in trying on new
things
.
Besides
, in my view, the reality is that they fear
change
. They know somewhere in their hearts that if they try something new, and they do not like it or they fail,
then
 that could disrupt their peaceful
life
.
Therefore
, they continue with their mundane lives. There are,
however
, others, myself included, who constantly thrive

life
.
Secondly
, the thought of living a monotonous
life
 scares them, and they think that trying new
things
 will add to their existing skills or will improve them.
Moreover
, it gives them a sense of joy or thrill, and they feel a sense of accomplishment.
For instance

although
 living a comfortable
life
 can be a choice for some, in my opinion, in
such
 a short
life
, we must seek

. If we control our fearful emotions and be brave,
then
 we could know that living a
life
 is very different from just leading one.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
