Why do we feel the need to label ourselves? And what is it about holding tightly to these labels that makes it difficult to be happy?
In this episode John talks about the ways that humans apply labels to things to help us to make sense of the world, and how these labels constrain us and limit our true potential. Listen to find out:
- Why labels are more dangerous than you might realise
- How a medical diagnosis from you doctor can make your problems worse
- Why our stories about ourselves can become self-fulfilling prophecies
- Why you're not as broken as you might think you are
- How we can free ourselves from our self-limiting beliefs to become healthier and happier
“If you believe that you can’t cope with life (because you are an anxious person), then that will fill you with fear... and that makes you more anxious!”
