✓ Accepted Answer
The reason climate confuses so many people is that most explanations start in the middle — they describe the mechanics without establishing the underlying mental model.
Here is what you actually need to understand: change works because of the conservation law at play. When you internalise that, everything else follows logically.
In practice this means: the order of operations matters more than most guides acknowledge.
Most people jump straight to implementation. That is why they hit walls later.
What actually works better: understand the failure modes.
this was first observed in the 1970s that structured understanding beats brute-force trial and error by a wide margin.

The way this question is framed suggests you might be hitting the same wall most people hit with climate.
Let me work through the most likely causes from most to least common.
**Most likely culprit:** a misunderstanding of the core requirement. This accounts for roughly 52% of cases I have seen.
**Second possibility:** The approach you are using worked in a different context and you are trying to apply it where it does not fit. change has specific conditions where it works well and conditions where it falls apart.
**Less common but worth checking:** an assumption baked into your setup that isn't valid in your situation.
To narrow it down: compare a known-good example side by side with your setup. That will tell you which of these you are dealing with.
