3 Ways to Avoid the Biggest Self-Help Traps and Just Start Enjoying Your Life

3 Ways to Avoid the Biggest Self-Help Traps and Just Start Enjoying Your Life

Self-help is sometimes the opposite. It can end up increasing your task list with a bunch of unrealistic expectations you never achieve. Today’s conversation is about navigation, not directions. We explore the quiet difference between a compass you trust and a checklist someone sells. Passport stamps matter less than the personality you bring to the journey; so does the company you invite to walk beside you.

Work out if a new habit is worthwhile or if you should be doing less Build a personal compass based on your own interests Show up as the person you are How to Change the World Sam's new show can be found on major podcast players: Spotify - ⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/1Fj3eFjEoAEKF5lWQxPJyT⁠⁠⁠ Apple - ⁠⁠⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-change-the-world-the-history-of-innovation/id1815282649⁠⁠⁠ YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@HowToChangeTheWorldPodcast⁠⁠⁠ Can't find it on your player?
