Ep. 39: Programmed Rationalization: How to Escape Ongoing Self Sabotage

What comes through habit, seems completely natural. If we tell ourselves something over and over again, it probably may start sounding more true even if at first we called it into question. So why rationalize instead of accept a reality, even if temporary? It's hard to see the truth of our situations, but harder to accept it.  Our quest to grow and progress is marred with temporary appeals and diversions from meaningful change - and yet in moments, when the time is right, we embrace what is necessary to move us forward.  Rationalization is different from being rational. One is responsible while the other is reckless. That's in this week's episode of the Working Ant.
