For nearly a year all went well, until deep in the Pacific, a breaching whale knocked a hole in their boat and it sank.

Why is it so hard to change problem behavior - in our kids, our colleagues, and even ourselves? Conventional methods often backfire, creating a downward spiral of resentment and frustration, and a missed opportunity for growth. What if the thinking behind these old methods is wrong?
