Why Won't you Just Listen To Me?

How many times have we said or been told, “Why won’t you just listen to me?” or “Why do I have to keep repeating myself?” when someone keeps doing the same thing over and over again, including us. And after years of pleading to change one's habits, still no resolve. Someone or we will just not listen. Or we will keep repeating ourselves hoping the recipient of our wisdom finally listens and steadfastly moves forward in life, but most likely not.
