Book excerpt: Author Jess McCann spent over a decade investigating the reason why so many smart, attractive people suffer repeating, negative patterns. What she found was the startling revelation that men and women who struggle to develop or maintain a happy relationship all have one thing in common: they are unknowingly stuck in a habit of self-focused thinking.In a time where people are advised to concentrate more on themselves in order to gain happiness and love, McCann astutely lays out a different and more sustainable path to those goals. "If Love Is A Blessing, Why Do I Feel Cursed?" shines a light on the 5 self-focused thought habits that sabotage love and the practices needed to rid and reframe them.
