What’s Really Holding You Back: Morality or Anxiety?

The people in the room with the man who refused to do the boring task rated their own morality higher than the people in the other room rated theirs.  In other words, those who witnessed the “rebel” saw themselves as more noble and generous because they agreed to do the task where the rebel had not.

Does the Career You Want Make You Feel Uncomfortable?

Whenever I feel like I “can’t” do something because it would “make me too uncomfortable,” I ask myself what my body would look like in that state of discomfort.  Then, I do my best to imitate that image—usually hunching over, tensing my muscles and squeezing my eyes shut.

Are You Really Trapped, Part Three: Do You Have the Right to Pursue Your Goals?

What do we really mean when we say we don’t have the “right” to pursue a goal?  Well, let’s start with what we don’t mean.  First off, we aren’t suggesting it would be illegal to do what we want.  There’s no question, for example, that it would be perfectly lawful for my friend to publish a book about her experiences.

Will You Survive a Career Change?

It’s no secret that, in our society, we tend to closely identify with our occupations.  When someone asks what you “do” or what you “are,” I’ll bet you usually respond with your job description—“I’m a lawyer,” “I’m an engineer,” and so forth.  Often, when a person loses their job or retires, you’ll hear them say they feel like they’ve “lost part of themselves,” or that they aren’t sure what they’re “good for” anymore.  The way we tend to perceive our careers, it’s as if they’re limbs or organs of our bodies, and removing them would endanger our lives.

To Be Creative, Step Beyond the Survival Mindset

When we bring the survival mindset to our creative activities—particularly those we do in our jobs—we tend to have trouble producing our best work.  We become more concerned with meeting our employers’ and clients’ expectations and getting things done quickly than creating something we’re proud of.  The creative juices most freely flow, it seems, in those activities we do for their own sake, whether or not they make us money, impress anyone, or do anything else to ensure our stability.

Is Seeking Happiness Selfish?

“It’s great that you have the luxury of being able to do things for yourself,” they say.  “But I have kids to raise, a job to do and a spouse to take care of.  I spend my life doing things for others.”  To them, my efforts to achieve more peace and centeredness only benefit me, and use up time I could be devoting to serving others’ needs.
