Disasters in Life

The only time most of us ever learn anything is when we get hit over the back of the head/. Because its easier not to change. So we keep doing what we're doing until we hit a brick wall.
Health for example. When do we change diets and start exercising? When our body is falling apart- when the doctor says: "If you dont change your lifestyle, you'll kill yourself!" suddenly were motivated.
In relationships - when do we usually tell each other how much we care? When the marriage is falling apart, when the family is falling apart?
In school - when do we finally knuckle down and study. When we're about to fail?
When do we usaully pray? When our life is falling apart?
Success we celebrate- but we dont learn too much. Failure hurts - and thats when we get educated. We are creatures of habit. We keep doing what we are doing until we are forced to change.
