When You Hate Yourself. You Have a Problem

Yes, you do. And this can affect you many ways, individually and collectively.

I want to consider how it affects me as an individual this morning. It hits me right where it hurts most: in my bank account.

Everyone wants me to buy their product or service. And many of these are defective in ways that are cleverly hidden.

What I have to do is simple: decide whether I can afford them or not. But when I do not like myself, it is always tempting to go for something that will do me no good.

This is the crucial blind spot of our time; we do not realize how easy (and satisfying) it is to become self-destructive.
