Question for Shannon About AM/SM

[Shannon]

I'm not trying to insult you Shannon, but I really don't get it. So that's all there is to say I guess.

Just take some time to read and re-read the advice you were given until you really understand it as much as you can. Then start moving to make your change.

Self analysis and introspection is very valuable. You need to come to understand your own actions and choices as they really are, instead of acting on autopilot and assuming you know what they are. This usually leads to some somewhat painful realizations about yourself, which will lead you to make some equally challenging decisions and changes, which will result in you outgrowing the negative behavior patterns. That's how it happened for me.
