The Illusion of Freedom




ActionPodcast show

Summary: What is freedom to you? Financial, emotional, occupational? Often we hear people say that if they had more money they would be able to do something else; something more exciting or interesting. Or they blame their current circumstances, having to look after the kids, an elderly relative or some other kind of commitment. All too often we find ourselves holding on to this wishful thought that if we had the freedom, things would be different. Well Paul and Gina are here to tell you that vision of freedom is, in fact, just an illusion. It's your own way of stopping you from actually fulfilling your dreams. By sustaining this illusion, people even feel somewhat satisfied that they have already attained their goal, even though it's just in their mind. This has the added benefit of them never having to go through the hard work and change that might be required to achieve this dream. So if you often find yourself lost in wishful thinking, it's time to shatter that illusion and start working towards making it a reality instead.
