Subsequently, we will all make mistakes and missteps along our individual journeys. This is normal. However, what is abnormal is to repeatedly making the same mistakes even despite our better judgment, advice, or understanding. At this point it is wise and prudent to swallow pride and to seek competent assistance. A life coach may be the solution.
