On a Road to Self Acceptance with Tara Massan and Seth Singleton
We start out with the weather.
The Butte and Camp Fires have made the air quality in Oakland very dangerous.
I share a few personal examples including the joys and discomforts of wearing an air mask on a daily basis.
Tara is enjoying a snowstorm that she describes as normal for where she lives in Minnesota. Tara welcomes the snow because it coats the bleak winter landscape when it is dry.
When Self-Help Goes Bad
2 main sections Tara wants to address:
The Dangers of Self-Help and Nonsense we have all heard.
It creates the urge to say I want to fix this…
That’s great, if you want to live to your potential
But diving in can mean I can’t fix a problem until I fix what is wrong with me
Self Help is a business that sells information
Not a product that is tangible
To keep you hooked you have to keep fixing what is wrong with you
You don’t have to be or think a certain way to be worthy
It gets you hooked on the idea that you are not enough.
Self Help is a product of searching and discovery
Specific examples and results
4 Types of Nonsense
1. You learn to be successful by listening to successful people
2. Positive Psychology
3. Procrastination
4. Follow your Passion
Does not mean, "Screw your job."
Or that you are Entitled to live your life only by your terms
5. Developing an Awareness
