"Nous ne pouvons rien changer tant que nous ne l'acceptons pas. La condamnation ne libère pas, elle opprime."
— Carl Jung

Simplified Meaning:
To make a real change in something, we first need to understand and acknowledge it as it is. Just criticizing or blaming a situation doesn't help us improve it. For example, if someone wants to lose weight, the first step is to accept they have to change their eating habits and lifestyle. Simply feeling bad about themselves or complaining achieves nothing. By accepting the reality, they can then create a plan to eat better and exercise more, leading to real progress. Understanding and accepting the truth gives us the power to take practical steps towards improvement.
