No matter what you do, you cannot get to grips with the new software - or perhaps the thing just keeps crashing. Your frustration reaches boiling point - then you get depressed. If we don't take time to learn how to operate our expensive machine, we waste time, energy and often money. It's the same with life. If we aren't getting the results we want, we need to change our behavior or strategy.
Negative behaviors are bad habits.
Like leeches, they sap our creativity, energy, spontaneity and enthusiasm, yet we seem to seem to continually repeat them. They would stick fast to the twig and it was extremely difficult to remove the nasty little things. Often we hang on to behaviors, bad habits and beliefs past their time, even though we are aware they no longer work for us. Sometimes it's a relationship. You keep winding up with someone just like your ex.
