Do you have anyone in your life who is willing to tell you not just what you want to hear, but who loves you enough to tell you what you NEED to hear? I have observed that MOST people do not want to know the truth about themselves and how their behavior affects other people. I believe that one of the reasons people do not want to hear the truth is because they do not want to change or they don't realize that change is possible or they don't understand the impact that change can have in their lives for good. It is often said about people who struggle with addictions, that they only become willing to change only when the pain of staying the same becomes worse than the pain of changing. For most people who live addictive lifestyles, a lot of mass destruction has to occur in their lives before they are willing to stop what their doing and seek the help they need to change. So, how about you? Do you find yourself surrounding yourself only with people who tell you what you want to hear or do you invite people who tell you what you need to hear? Do you embrace or resist change?
