LIFE COACHING: Should We Use The Word Lazy?
🎙️ Welcome to the Join Up Dots podcast summary! Today, we're diving into a fascinating topic brought up by Jigme Choden that many of us can relate to: feeling "lazy" while actually hustling hard. Isn't that curious?
Ever felt like you're lazier than you are busy? It's a paradox many of us grapple with. Here's the scoop: sometimes, our self-image doesn't match our actions, and there are a few reasons for this. First, our self-perception often stems from what we've been told or what we believe about ourselves.
So, even if we're super active, that "lazy" label might stick. Also, our definition of "lazy" might be a bit extreme. We set high bars for ourselves, making it hard to see our efforts clearly. Then there's the clash between our idea of laziness and society's standards of productivity. It's like a tug-of-war between what we think and what the world thinks.
Sometimes, we're go-getters in some areas but not so much in others. It's like acing work but feeling lazy about personal passions or health goals. Lastly, feeling lazy might be a protective shield. It could be a way of avoiding the scary realms of success or failure. But here's the inspiring part: to bridge this gap between our self-image and reality, it's time to reframe our thinking.
Let's: Rethink what "lazy" truly means and question if it's holding us back. Reevaluate our self-image and see if it aligns with our accomplishments. Recognize our achievements and stop underestimating our efforts.
