We should use the same measurements we make of time as a measurement of sanity. Unfortunately we usually don&rsquo;t think in these terms.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Abdicating Responsibility<\/h4>\n<p>There is so much we are generally unaware of and make all kinds of import decisions with far reaching consequences, that impact our futures. We take little responsibility, preferring to dump the blame on someone else. It is so hard to gain perspective and requires ongoing discipline. Something addicts are notoriously lacking in.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Occam%27s_razor\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Occam&rsquo;s Razor<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>In this podcast I to hope to motivate the reasoning behind why we end up making the<a href=\"https:\/\/ssdev.co.za\/crossroads-old\/types-of-addiction\/drug-addiction\/\"> bad choices<\/a> we do. What can be done about it is such a counter intuitive solution and so difficult to quantify.
