Day 2,941 —Different Names— with a PICTURE of a TREE at NIGHT #726

I have been listening to self-help books recently. Today, I finished the one about dragons as representation of different types of unconscious thoughts that can make you unhappy. It is funny to me how much this guy sounds like the self-help gurus without any credentials. They just call things by different names. 

I am not disagreeing with anyone, I just spend a lot of time thinking about how everyone is saying the same things, but they do not hear it. When I write about these things, I think what I have to say is not anything new; the only difference is my relationship with the ideas. 

Most people agree that alcohol, caffeine, sugar, and processed foods are bad for you. However, most people cannot stop their addictions with those things, but that does not stop every person (including myself) from telling people they should start there. One of the lies that people tell themselves to keep doing their bad habits is “everything in moderation,” I get so mad when I hear people say this because I used to believe it to, and it made things much harder for me than they needed to be.
