There is a moment in life when you realize something uncomfortable: the person you are today is not the person you wanted to become. You look at your habits, your reactions, your relationships, your health, and you see patterns that do not serve you. You have tried to change. You have read books, made resolutions, perhaps attended seminars. Yet somehow, despite your best intentions, you keep waking up as the same person.
