We just can't stand it another minute, and then miraculously, we find another way to numb out or tell ourselves a story to keep us from toppling the apple cart. A lifetime can be spent living in fear of disrupting life's patterns even though we are miserable. We will sweep things under the rug or avoid making life-altering decisions because we don't want to deal with what could be messy or a mistake... or a new beginning. So we keep towing the rope in our relationships, job or projects we undertake, hoping for a miracle or something outside of us to shift our reality.

Except it never happens. At least not how we think it is supposed to. Instead more pain arrives, perhaps even crises occur, before we finally decide to REALLY live. Why wait? Learn how to get out of this soul crushing cycle.
