fobo

It is easy to become overwhelmed by options and choices. Sometimes we are paralyzed not wanting to commit to anything because we’re afraid something better might come along. But this is the recipe for deep unhappiness in life and in our relationships. 

When it comes to Jesus, it can be tempting to keep our options open. But this passage pleads with us: Don’t say No to Jesus.

What if we were as dedicated to building our agencies the right way as we are to our favorite sports teams? Shane and Tonya celebrate the beginning of college football season talking about dedication and how FOBO (the fear of better offers) can distract us from what it takes to be successful.

We’re here to talk about FOBO — that’s our "fear of better options". FOBO happens when we struggle to choose ONE thing from a group of perfectly-acceptable choices. So, how can we learn to make decisions with conviction?

Fomo- הפחד מהחמצה- Fear of missing out 

אם אתם חושבים שלא לכולם יש את התחושה הזאת... תחשבו שוב..

אנחנו שומעים יותר ויותר את המילה הזאת בשנים האחרונות, אבל בתכלס... פומו מגיע אלינו עוד מימי אדם וחווה וכל הסיפור עם עץ הדעת..ומשהו שהתפתח לאורך האבולוציה (!!!)

לאחרונה עם החשיפה שלנו לכל מה שקורה באינסטוש, וברשתות החברתיות אנחנו יותר חשופים לדברים שיכולים לעורר אצלנו את התחושה הקשה והחמצמצה הזו.. אבל זה גם קצת מנחם להבין שזה תמיד היה 

בפרק אני מארחת את רועי סמנה.. רועי הוא פסיכולוג קליני שמתמחה בשיטה הפסיכודינמית, מרצה, וכותב בלוג (מעולה) שנקרא משחק במילים

בפרק אנחנו מדברים על אנשים שחווים בצורה מאוד אינטנסיבית את תחושת הפומו, לדברי רועי ״פומו ספיאנס״, על אנשים שפחות

האם יש גיל לפומו?... 

 על הבודהיזם ועל הסבל שנגרם לנו מההיאחזות שלנו בדברים

האם יש צדדים טובים ובריאים בפומו?

מתי זה פוגש אותנו ואיך אפשר להתגבר על זה?

In this episode of Art Grind, hosts Dina Brodsky, Marshall Jones, and producer Tun Myaing interview writer and entrepreneur Patrick McGinnis in New York City. Best known for coining the term “FOMO” (Fear Of Missing Out), McGinnis seems like an unusual guest: what could someone from the world of finance speak about on an art podcast? As an art collector, writer, and brother of a musician, it turns out that McGinnis has a lot to talk about. McGinnis not only shares pragmatic advice useful for any creative, but is a bold storyteller who respects art and culture. From travelling in South America to renegade drawing exhibitions to Harvard Business School, this episode proves, and McGinnis would insist, that there’s no room for FOMO in a creative life.

Patrick J. McGinnis (@patrickjmcginnis) is an international venture capitalist and the author of Fear of Missing Out: Practical Decision-Making in a World of Overwhelming Choice.  Patrick coined the term FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), as well as the related term FOBO (Fear of Missing Out) in a 2004 article in the student newspaper of Harvard Business School.  FOMO has since been added to the dictionary and FOBO has become an increasingly popular framework to describe choice paralysis. 

Patrick is the host of the hit podcast, FOMO Sapiens, which is distributed by Harvard Business Review, and the author of international bestseller The 10% Entrepreneur: Live Your Startup Dream Without Quitting Your Day Job. He has been featured in The New York Times, Politico, The Financial Times, The Guardian, and Inc, and gave a popular 2019 TED Talk on FOBO and decision-making.  Originally from Maine, he has visited 103 countries and now lives in NYC.
