Why do people knowingly make the same mistakes over and over again?

Answers:

thats because the devil knows our weaknesses, and makes them steadily available.
Slow learners maybe. Not sure, but I have admit I have been one of those people. I guess I keep thinking, this time will be different. Naturally, I'm always wrong. :) It has to be responsibility for your actions, something is to be learned but not sinking in.
because they like what they're doing, what they're drawn to. and they always think they can make it different. Most PPl learn the hard way
Because they feel that they are getting something out of doing it.. they think by making that mistake they will accomplish something even if it doesn't.
Because some people have the foolish notion that something else will "save" them..perhaps God will directly intervene because they are so special. All the time they don't realize that God only helps those who helps themselves.
Other people have self-esteem issues they are unaware of that make them subconsciously punish themselves by deliberately sabotaging things.
Either way, it's sad.
They are stupid optimists. They'll be the first ones to point out your mistakes but can't see theirs at all. Stuck in a rut, just can't seem to break old habits. It's easier to repeat the same patterns than to break out and explore new territory. Because it's a safer path, because at least it is a known path.
because theyre just plain stupid..

!hhhhhggggggrrrrrrrrraA It could be out of four main reasons:
First- such person did not learn from his mistakes. He/She did not suffer that much as the effect of the mistakes done,or it did have just little impact on his/her life,or I could say the effects were just tolerable or ignorable.
Second- such person got no other choice but to repeat the same mistake??. There might be a great impact out of the mistakes done that a person swears never ever to do it again but in the end does it again because it may be the last resort of giving solution to his current crisis.
Third- he is enjoying with the consequences of his mistakes or just love doing it.
Fourth-such person falls in any of the following: got amnesia,apathetic,insane, or just a bit stupid,etc. its called insanity.insanity= doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result.
