A Rare Depth of Honesty and Insight
Why
Good
People
Do
Bad Things
is a masterful and courageous examination of the essential split within human
being
s - the split between our wounded egos and our limitless, authentic selves that is the source of much pain and suffering, both personally and globally. At the heart of the matter, Debbie Ford addresses the impact of unresolved shame and fear with a depth of honesty and intimacy rarely seen, and then gives us a truly life-changing roadmap to heal...spiritual solutions that can serve to crack our hearts open in the most extraordinary ways. Special note: The section of the book dedicated to the masks of the false self is absolutely fascinating and can be used to transform our relationships with ourselves, our families, friends, co-workers, and the world at large.

Helpful
I personally have a had a life wrought with anger and personal mistakes and I have hurt others and myself. That is the reason I chose to purchase this book. Much of the interior is redundant, but the big work is the ending on forgiveness. For me, powerful and extremely helpful. Once you learn the lesson here, you can live better. I have not read anything before on self-forgiveness written with such frankness and effectiveness.
Why you do what you do?
Debbie Ford brings together the theories of many of the current explanations on human behavior. I believe she does so brilliantly, most notably for me she brings together Hendrix's work on Imago theory as well as John Bradshaw's ideas of shame. We all are greatly impacted by our formative years as a child. We as human
being
s are built with a darkside that does help us to function, and function in mostly healthy ways most of the time. Unfortunately, shame from an early age, and the coping mechanisms we use to deal with early rooted shame hinder us the most as well.
I think my favorite part of her books is
how
she describes the masks or in other words the way we cope for example if we are the seductress, the charmer, the
people pleaser
, the bully, to name just a few. These specific masks come from very specfic wounds. I like that she gives no-nonsense advice in helping ourselves to heal our
own wounds
. She clearly spells out we must deal with our own wounding to
stop
our destructive and often addictive personal habits before we can really grow and develop into our most wonderful selves.
Her writing is clear, concise, and easy to read. I would recommend this book to anyone that ever wonders why we do what we do, if that is for
your
self, or even someone that you have a personal relationship. She gives simple advice while it may be difficult to take, will certainly help you grow into the person that is free from the past wounds.
