Listen "Harness Self Perpetuating Spirals Ep. 27"
Episode Synopsis
In life we fall into patterns.
There are experiences, emotions things we want to avoid. And things we want to move towards.
We've learned how to succeed by working hard to get what we want and avoid what we don't.
But sometimes, trying hard to avoid something, just brings you closer to it.
You end up in a downward spiral, that perpetuates itself.
The harder you try to get out. The deeper you sink.
A Chinese finger trap.
How do you get out?
Relax.
