Narcotics Anonymous group leader

So the truth is we can't change the past. What's done is done. We've got to own our actions, but putting ourselves on trial, acting as our own judge, jury, and executioner, it's not the answer because a lot of the time all that judging does is just ensure that we're going to repeat the cycle.

— Self-hatred, guilt, it accomplishes nothing. It just stands in the way.
— Stands in the way of what?
— True change.
