The morning quickie is a short session of The life we want podcast that airs every Tuesday and is aimed at self-growth through motivations and life hacks. We've been sharing it on our social media platforms for the past two weeks. Here is a copy of what was in the episode.
Have you been with someone who makes you feel emotionally drained? Someone who doesn’t support you, respects you only when you live their way, makes you feel unattractive, etc.? In general, people who make you feel uncomfortable and around whom you can’t be yourself. You have to learn to let go of such people because you will only be as great as the people you surround yourself with. There is no point in investing time and energy in such relationships. Instead, try building connections with people who inspire you to be the best version of yourself and charge you with positive energy.
It’s well-known that the consumer culture is a thing thanks to the big corporations and their marketing and media experts. We are all constantly reminded, through various sources, that we need all those shiny new things in our lives in order to be happy. You have to create your own culture and lifestyle – don’t be misled by fashion magazines and TV stars. They’ll always try to instill fake values, new fashions, behavior patterns, and so on. That’s in the corporations’ best interest, not yours. Their only goal is to make money through your consumerism, not making you happy. Your life, friends, family, goals, hopes, etc. Concentrate on acquiring different experiences and meaningful connections, not possessions. The sad thing is, many misled people wake up one day and realize it was all a trick. They’ve lost something more valuable than their material ‘’wealth’’- time.
Please Listen, learn, & share
