Change is scary. We unconsciously "run" from that change, sometimes. Even though we want to change, we are comfortable where we are, too. When we start to make changes, things get scary and new, and we don't know what to do with the feelings we are having around the changes we are making. So we unconsciously go back to what we know... I do it too. I know I do it. I've tried to find ways to stop myself from reverting back to what I know, and I haven't really found them yet.
