Episode 36: Being "Enough"

Being "Enough"

Here are a couple of questions for you, folks: Do you do things so they will get you somewhere? What good is all of this intentional busyness? Where does the drive to "succeed" take you anyway??? When we struggle, when we're challenged to perform at our best, and to do the things that many of us see as the "right thing to do," who are we doing it for?  Do we ever pause and ask ourselves where our benchmarks for success come from? And why are our sights set where they are? Too often we derive what we "should" be doing by comparing ourselves to others who we see as equivalent or even ideal. This, we suggest, may not be a productive thing to do.

So then what does it mean to be "enough," and how do we decide when we're there? Can we avoid the call to join the cult of perfectionism? In this episode, we talk through some moments from our lives. We explore how we related to whether or not we saw ourselves and/or our contributions as enough, and what was behind our intentions in the quest to thrive. How we make decisions now sometimes is quite a bit different than how we made them "back then." We'd love to hear your thoughts on "what is enough," and the remedy that we propose here.  Is our takeaway “enough” for you?

Thanks all!
