We are a society of people that treat symptoms. We treat symptoms in our medicine, in our
professions, in our social lives. Unfortunately, just because your treating the symptoms
doesn’t mean you’re fixing the problem. If you think your doctor controls your health
problems because he or she has prescribed medication for them — well, you couldn’t be
more wrong! The same is true for every aspect of your life. If you are treating only the
symptom, you allow the root cause to stay there and worsen over time.
