\nSounds simple. And it is!
\nSo why do we constantly repeat the same things over and over?
\nBecause we usually, consciously or unconsciously, pin the cause on ‘not-me<\/strong>‘.
\nIf you have children, you know who ‘not-me’ is. That’s who takes the blame for all the not-so-good things happening in your family.<\/p>\n
\nAnd how long are you going to continue using it as the reason for\u2026 whatever.<\/p>\n
\nIt all starts with admission.<\/p>\n
