51 分钟Nothing real can be accomplished.
Nothing permanent can be accomplished.
You'll have no impact on the course of events around you or even in the world, unless you become potent.
One of the most satisfying things for me as a shrink is when I see somebody move up the ladder.
And it doesn't have to be deep, evocative, revealing experiences that you can.
It's great if it is, is just, can they get through life a little bit better?
Can they make a phone call that they're afraid to make, etcetera?
I always tell them, especially new patients, because they'll have all kinds of objections, as well they should.
I tell them, try this for two weeks, maybe a month.
If you don't feel something changing, fire me.
Please, fire me.
So, have you ever felt stuck in work or maybe a relationship or life?
Like you're just going through the motions day after day and have no idea.
How to break out of it?
Maybe along for more creativity or meaning, love, excitement, or purpose in your life?
And if this sounds familiar, you're not alone.
We all can get trapped in the inertia, afraid to disrupt our comfort zones.
And facing these moments, hard as they can be, is critical.
But how you face them can make the difference between finally getting unstuck and making amazing things happen in life, or digging yourself deeper into the rut that's already wreaking havoc on you.
Which is why I was so excited to sit down with someone whose work in this area I have been following.
