Tom Morris: Using Philosophy to Transform the Fear of Change into Success | STM Podcast #107

On episode 107, we welcome philosopher Tom Morris to discuss why people naturally fear change despite it being an inextricable part of the human condition, why building confidence and creating habits are better remedies than resistance and isolation, OCD and lack of confidence being at its core, the importance of mentorship, the use of reframing to foster empowerment in seemingly daunting scenarios, why stoicism is a starting point to forming a more nuanced philosophy, practicing philosophy rather than getting stuck in ideas, how having abstract goals cannot lead to specific results, and the importance of having a clear vision for them.
