Episode 147: Never want something for someone else more than they want it for themselves

It's good to care for others. However, in some cases, the way we
care may inadvertently do more harm than good. As a therapist, my
rule of thumb is to never want something for someone else more
than they want it for themselves. If someone is not motivated to
change, I'm even slightly less motivated than they are. This can
help some folks to hold their own motivation and take greater
responsibility for their lives. I'll discuss more in this
episode.
