How to Recognize Unreasonable Expectations and Decide on a Slower Pace

The Self-Awareness and Self-Compassion Podcast

Aug 25 2023 • 17 mins

A chronic symptom of the culture we are in is that we want to consume more, do more, and be more all the time. Our expectation is that self-growth is the most positive thing in the world for us, but in the pursuit of having everything already done to perfection, we wear ourselves out and feel awful.

We should always ask of any thought or belief that we have, is this true? And is this thought or belief serving me well?

It’s so easy to mindlessly pursue more, and it makes me personally feel tired, disappointed, and ragged. Self-criticism like that doesn’t serve us at all.

This week's episode will help you slow down and feel better about the natural pace that serves you best.
