    The Surprising Secret to Leading an Extraordinary Life

    enJanuary 15, 2016

    Podcast Summary

    • Facebook can distort our view of reality and impact self-esteemFacebook presents a skewed perspective of others' lives, leading to comparisons and negative feelings, but focusing on personal growth and real-life connections is key to happiness.

      Facebook can negatively impact our self-esteem by presenting a distorted view of other people's lives. We often compare ourselves to others based on the highlight reels we see on social media, leading to feelings of inadequacy and insecurity. This can prevent us from making the most of our own lives and pursuing exciting opportunities. It's important to remember that what we see on Facebook is just a small snapshot of someone's life, and that everyone experiences ups and downs. Instead of comparing ourselves to others, we should focus on our own personal growth and happiness. Additionally, it's important to remember that social media is just one aspect of our lives, and we should not let it define our self-worth. Instead, we should strive to create meaningful connections and experiences in the real world.

    • Don't compare your behind-the-scenes to someone else's highlight reelAppreciate the ordinary moments in life and find joy in them, instead of constantly comparing yourself to others

      We often feel overwhelmed and unsatisfied with our lives because we compare them to the highlight reels of others. However, the reality is that most of life is mundane, regardless of who we are. It's important to appreciate the extraordinary moments in the seemingly ordinary moments of our lives instead of the constant comparison. Remember, don't compare your behind-the-scenes to someone else's highlight reel. Instead, focus on the small things in your life, like reading a good book, seeing a new movie, or exploring a new part of your neighborhood. By doing so, we can find joy and meaning in life's everyday moments.

    (Matt Monday): Get Too Obsessed, Too Soon? WATCH THIS
    Do you get obsessed too quickly in the early days of dating? This is often dangerous because it places WAY too much of our happiness in trying to attract and keep someone (even when we don’t really know them yet). 
     
    Thankfully, this kind of “anxious dating” is something you can actually solve. In today’s episode, I dive into where this obsession comes from, and give you 5 things you can do to stop falling for someone too quickly and self-sabotaging in early dating.

    (Rewind): Don’t Avoid Difficult Conversations In Relationships. Do THIS…

    (Rewind): Don’t Avoid Difficult Conversations In Relationships. Do THIS…
    Sometimes we avoid speaking up about what we really want with a person because we're afraid we will "make waves" in the relationship.

    We come from a place of fear and anxiety. "What if me telling him I want something to be different makes him walk away altogether?" we think to ourselves.

    So we ignore the conversation and silently suffer.

    But then nothing gets better. We just put off the conversation for another day while time keeps moving on.
    If this is you, this episode is for you.

    (Rewind): Do You Feel You’re Giving Too Much in Relationships?

    What do you do when you’re a giving person but you feel like your kindness gets taken advantage of in relationships? Maybe you feel like you’re always the one trying and then your resentment builds up until one day you explode in anger. 

    In this video, I show you why we get trapped in the curse of people pleasing, how to set appropriate boundaries, and how to ask for what you need from someone you’re dating.

    The Opposite of Depression | Samantha Boardman

    Depression is a debilitating problem both on an individual and a societal level and it has only gotten worse during the pandemic. According to the World Health Organization, depression is now one of the leading causes of disability on the planet. 


    Our guest today Dr. Samantha Boardman is going to talk about what she calls the opposite of depression— something called positive psychiatry. This approach focuses on the positive things in the lives of her patients rather than just the pathologies. 


    Boardman is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College, which is also where she went to medical school and did her four year residency program. She later went back and got a Master’s degree in Applied Positive Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. She recently put out a book called Everyday Vitality: Turning Stress into Strength



    In this episode we talked about:

    • The 3 C’s (factors contributing to vitality)
    • The notion that our understanding of happiness does not have to be internally oriented
    • How not all socializing is created equal
    • Why identifying your values is important  
    • The value of hobbies
    • The flake factor
    • And the value of failure
