#1675 Optimise Strengths Or Develop Weaknesses? - Bobby Cappuccio
About this episode
Bobby is back (after quite a break) and he's lost none of his insight, inspiration or significant brain power. This time we explore the following (1) whether the pursuit of happiness is a misguided endeavour (2) whether positive affirmations can boost self-confidence and help us manage stress more effectively (or are they pseudo-psychology) (3) the hardest part of making meaningful changes in our lives (4) whether we should optimise our strengths or focus on our weaknesses (5) the ridiculous assertion that sleep is for the lazy and weak (6) why the ‘just work harder’ idea is a stupid one (7) why the idea of 'not trying' might actually help you succeed and lots more.
