you may act in a way that makes them think.. but in the end that is the limit of your influence.. past that they must make the changes themselves.

People that are very subjective can be changed by subtle influences and conditioning. But that's a bit sneaky, especially when they don't know what's happening to them. The better way is drop good hints and suggestions on them at a conscious level. That way they will hopefully have an "ah haaaa" experience where they realize the truth for themselves and will change from within.

No one has the power to change anyone else, it is ultimately the person's decision if they want to change or not. Of course you can inspire or promote change in a person, but they have to do the changing themselves.

You can try to change them but when it comes right down to it they have to want to change themselves before it will happen.

It falls to the person that you want to change. that person is the only one that can pull that off. Just as every one is responsible for their own happiness.

They have to change themselves. Odds are that they won't

we have to change ourselves before changing the others cause none is perfect.

"You can lead a horse to water but you can't get it to drink".
It has to do that itself.
