RE: Self-Improvement: Being TOLD What we Need vs. KNOWING What we Need

in #psychology5 years ago

I totally agree with this concept. I discovered this very thing for myself and realized motivation must come from our own inspiration to change or take action. Being pressured into it or told that's what we "should" do or how we "should be" has no substance and doesn't last. Great post :)

Thanks @tressareid! I've long been a fan of the tongue-in-cheek truism "Don't should on me!" I think we just have to figure out what we're going to do at our own pace. Which isn't to say that there isn't good and well-meaning advice out there!
