Summary: All those people who “know” what’s best for you - all the experts, advisers, family and friends – they’re all just people with opinions. It’s a mistake to elevate their opinons to the level of rules you MUST follow. Other people’s opinions, even expert opinions, are always formed in the context of their particular circumstances, their lives, the way their brains work, their emotional strengths, their biases, their level of awareness. No matter how much knowledge or experience they’re able to bring to the table, other people don’t have access to your aspirations, your inner wisdom, your creativity, your emotional chemistry, your preferences and desires, what motivates you to take action, and what’s likely to defeat you and turn you off. If your brain’s been telling you there’s a right way to do something because someone else has said it’s so, tune into this episode so you don’t deny yourself the opportunity to explore what’s best for you.
