I read some of the questions that get posted and some I can relate to so much....so I answer them, then later I go back and read my answer again....it makes sence, like it's really the right thing to do...but why didnt I think of that for myself first? I can give advise all day long, but then I'm still in the same boat?!?! Why?

Honestly we all do this! Ever heard the phrase "I should take a leaf out of my own book"? Believe me, we're all great at giving advice and not heeding it when it applies to us. It's just a fact of life! We're blind to our own advice!

Because being happy is generally a lot more appealling than being right. Being right usually means you need spend a little time uncomfortable before you can be happy...and then life gets good.
Determine what your goals are and let nothing get in the way of them. Life is about discipline.

There's a saying in psychiatry..Insight and a dollar will get you on the subway. In other words, it's easy to intellectualize something and know the 'right' thing to do, but very hard to apply that knowledge in the moment.

Because you know the answer and dont want to do it, as it will take you out of your comfortzone or mean work. Nobody likes causing their own pain on purpose..unless they are masochists.

realize that each individual isnt necessarily going to take your advice...just read all advices and do what feels right for him/her.
youre no different from them.

Maybe because you need someone to tell you to validate your thoughts.
