Do you have dead people’s goals?

⏺ “I want to stop feeling anxious, angry, sad, guilty.”
⏺ “I want to stop making mistakes.”
⏺ “I want to stop being stressed.”
⏺ “I want to stop procrastinating.”

While these goals are understandable, they can be counterproductive because they emphasize absence over action. Essentially, a dead person can achieve these goals by simply not existing.

We don’t talk enough about Anger!

Despite its bad reputation, anger is not bad, even though it might feel bad. Anger is a primary emotion—a fundamental, immediate emotional response to a perceived threat or violation of one’s needs or values. It’s there to protect us, to signal unmet needs or crossed boundaries, and often shows up when our values, principles, or limits are being challenged. 🚧

• What is behind your anger?

• What message is your answer trying to send you?

Sometimes we mistakenly believe that self-compassion means letting ourselves off the hook, avoiding responsibility, or not caring about our behaviors and performance. That couldn’t be further from the truth. By nurturing self-compassion, we build resilience, foster inner strength, and enhance our overall wellbeing. 🌱

The harsher and more critical we are with ourselves, the greater our need for self-compassion.
