“You can’t change someone who does not see an issue with their actions. You can only change how you react to them.”

Changing others isn’t possible if they refuse to recognize their own shortcomings. However, you can always shift your own responses, managing your reactions to protect your peace. Accepting this empowers you to set boundaries and avoid the frustration of unmet expectations.
