Why Good People Do Bad Things: How to Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy by Debbie FordA critical read for a complete understanding of the human condition.
Ford illustrates that the root causes by which sabotage our relationships, our finances, our families, and our careers are rooted in our unknown and unconscious programing.
This programming results in an unhealthy belief concerning our dark sides. The pain and shame we feel "drives us to use food, alcohol, sex, drugs, excitement, collecting, gossiping and philandering as ways to distract ourselves from seeing that which we deem unacceptable or unflattering."
The scary thing is that we ALL do this to some extent or other. Some self-sabotage to the extent of the criminal.
In the end, it is important to recognize the lies we sell ourselves as the root cause of our short comings.
