She connects that habit to everything from repeatedly dating the wrong people to conflict with family, and argues that taking full responsibility for ourselves is the only real source of change. It is an honest reflection on reclaiming personal power and building healthier relationships from the inside out. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://tinybuddha.com/blog/sometimes-we-are-the-ones-who-need-to-change/ Quotes to ponder: "If we want change, we are the ones that need to change, every one of us." "Ultimately, we can try to communicate and share with others, but we can't change them." "We can make ourselves into the type of person we keep wishing others would be and do the things we keep wishing others would do."
