Many have the desire to change but they find it difficult to see the progress. Why? It is because they fail to take the necessary action. In order to create a new program for your brain to follow there must be action. You can have the greatest future picture statement in the world and it won’t do you a bit of good if you allow yourself to fall prey to the grand fallacy that sabotages many addicts’ dreams.
THE GRAND FALLACY:
Six frogs sat on a lily pad. One decided to jump off. How many were left?
If you answered “five,” congratulations! Your capacity for analytical reasoning is in good shape. Unfortunately, that is not the correct answer. The correct answer is “six.”
That’s right: All six frogs are still sitting on that lily pad. Why? Because one only decided to jump off – he didn’t actually do any jumping. – John Assaraf
“Seize the very first possible opportunity to act on every resolution you make, and on every emotional prompting you may experience in the direction of the habits you aspire to gain. It is not in the moment of their forming but in the moment of their producing motor effects, that resolves and aspirations communicate the new “set” to the brain.”
- William James

that we have to work it out between the 2 of us??? As if this was sohtmeing that I caused??? (We have only been married 3 1/2 yrs, His divorce from her mother is what caused it, because of her infidelity. Also a issue they had with their oldest daughter when she went off to college at 19. I just happen to get all the left over insanity from it. I found this out the 1st yr we were married, that he was an alcoholic, as I was finding bottles of vodka hidden in our garage, or his work shed, etc. He told me that he only drank wine prior to our marriage). They think if they bury their head in the sand & PRETEND that it does not exist, it will all go away. What is going to go away is their dad & son! & maybe myself & my little life saver of a dog, Bella, (She is the only love I have or get in my life. He already let her jump out of our moving truck, it’s amazing she didn’t get run over or killed. Fortunately, it was right in front of our house.) I don’t understand that attitude from his family for the LIFE of me??? Yet if sohtmeing bad happened, I KNOW they would all blame me. As his mom did already when I tried to tell her about 1 occurance, she said, well, who gave it to him ??? He is 59 yrs old! And each yr, he grows more and MORE combative, more arguementive. But he doesn’t think he has a problem, or just doesn’t care. But I am tired of his mental & emotional abuse. It is costing ME everything, including my relationship with the Lord. What do or can you do when they will not admit that they even HAVE a problem or they refuse to go get help???
