I don't know where I'm going with this question
In terms of promising the inner child that you will be there for him, protect him etc. Why even when I made the promise, why do I still make mistakes? Sometimes where some people speak out of turn, I don't always feel the need to stop it then and there, sometimes I wait, do it on my own time. But in there moments where I know I let him down/not being there for him in that moment e.g. eating bad food, not being productive, not taking action on my goals or even procrastinating. Why do I still make mistakes and feel i'm not taking care of him even when I made the promise?
