How most people ruin their life in 4 steps

What not to do is often the best guide and you don't want to fall into the incredibly common spiral discussed in this episode. We incrementally fall into bad habits that creep up on us and just when we have the option to do something we instead blame everything else. Learn how to build mental strength and resilience and escape the trap of victimization and depression. This episode features the writing from the adventurer and philosopher Alastair Humphreys, his post "The Three Stages of Flabiness" from the book "There are Other Rivers" On the growth mindset podcast with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, purpose, and growth through the lens of self-improvement. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create. Through a process of honest self-reflection of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward, we can lose the ego and build awareness of how to be the best we can be. - - - Connect with Alastair Humphreys (and buy his books) 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/al_humphreys/ 📚 Inspiring books: https://alastairhumphreys.com/shop/ Connect with Sam Webster Harris 🧘‍♀️ Newsletter: https://explosivethinking.substack.com/ 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/samjamharris 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samjam.zen/ - - - Stay up to date: 🤓🤓🤓 💡 Podsite: https://www.growthmindsetpodcast.com/ GOAT Books to read (that changed my life) 📚📚🐐 🏃‍♀️ Atomic Habits: https://amzn.to/3O1F5MC 🧠 Mindset, psychology of success: https://amzn.to/42nYDzj 💰 Psychology of Money: https://amzn.to/3nNnXzs - - - Show: Growth Mindset, psychology of self-improvement Episode: Ruin your life in 4 steps Chapters 00:00 Excellence is a habit 00:58 How we slide out of good habits 01:47 Alastair Humphreys: 3 Stages of Flabbiness 02:07 1st Stage: Conquer Physical Flabbiness 03:03 2nd Stage: Escape the Grip of Mental Flabbiness 03:46 3rd Stage: Battling Moral Flabbiness 05:00 Adventure Awaits 05:40 Alastair Humphreys: "There Are Other Rivers" 06:00 Embrace Imperfections In Your Life 06:36 Victim mentality 07:36 Take Control of Your Life  08:56 Rewire for Success: Transform Your Mindset 10:02 Mental Reshaping: Beyond Your Comfort Zone 11:59 Small Good Habits As Fuel For Growth  12:13 Build The life You Want To Have 12:42 Send Off Topics Victim mentality Positive psychology Growth mindset Alastair Humphreys 3 stages of flabbiness Building Ownership and Responsibility Mental resilience Building good habits Atomic habits Physical exercise Mental exercise Morality and lies Understanding the ego Blaming society Blaming childhood Personal growth Victimhood Learn more about your ad choices.
