Listen "The Unselfish Art of Focusing on Yourself"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Devi Deals With It, we present the question: what part of the day do you focus on yourself?
The results from the Happiness and Life Satisfaction survey study done by Our World in Data were discussed in regards to how one perceives their sense of self. The ultimate question from this study that was discussed in this episode was, "how happy are you?" Devi was inspired to perform her own mini experiment on social media and found that, of the population that answered the polls,:

Are you using your time wisely? 57% no
Do you think you take care of yourself enough? 73% no
Are you actively working on your personal goals? 50% no
Does it matter what others think of you? 69% no
Do you know what you want most out of life? 67% yes

These results are important in recognizing how the average person views their self. Devi raises the point that, if we took more care of ourselves, beyond the physical and mental level, then we would feel as though we used our time more wisely. If we all embarked on a spiritual path, we could boost our self-discovery and maturation path by a lot.
"When we do make time for our wants and needs, we are more alive to the world around us, more available, and more giving of our fullest selves."
