Episode 45- The Holidays and Materialism
About this episode
In this episode of "An Incomplete Guide to Personal Growth" Sydney and Kelly talk about finding satisfaction and reflecting on the "why" of our wants.
- Negative connotation associated with materialism
- Outward--acquiring the "right" things
- How long do the "new" things make you satisfied
- Always wanting...confusing wants and needs
- Realizing what we have is hard when we look outward to see what we don't have
- Looking outward to find an inner void
- Scarcity Brain
- True freedom comes from examining the want and seeing what is on the other side of that
- Comparing ourselves to others
- Balance is key
