In this enlightening episode of Goodbye Bullshit, Hello Happiness with host, Atousa Raissyan, we journey deeper into self-discovery, redefining life's challenges, and the beauty of letting go of societal norms and expectations. Today, Atousa delves into her personal revelation involving an ingrained rule of not accepting things easily. She explores the nuanced difference between receiving with ease and receiving easy things.
Drawn from her life experiences and societal indoctrination, Atousa explains her internal rule that anything achieved easily has no value. This concept, dictated by society and generations past, is a prevalent belief in many. The episode encourages listeners to re-evaluate this belief and find the charm in accepting things that come easily in life without attributing any less value to them.
She further emphasizes the link between a task's challenge level and its perceived value, explaining how she has conditioned herself to seek a moderate challenge level to claim a sense of achievement. Dissecting this deep-seated need for approval and validation, Atusa offers a fresh perspective, suggesting that we should not be tied to ownership or achievement manifestations to validate our value.
The episode progresses into how Atousa shifted this narrative by allowing herself to embrace and receive "easy" things with gratitude. It invites listeners to redefine what "value" means to them, aside from society-imposed yardsticks. Atousa encourages opening ourselves up to life's ease and flow, allowing ourselves to receive without applying limitations of difficulty or challenge.
Join us in this stimulating discussion about self-imposed rules and the power of accepting life's ease, as we explore love, magic, joy, and beauty in each episode of Goodbye Bullshit, Hello Happiness.
