And so they’re talking a lot about what’s going on, complaining, and venting and all of that. And there’s nothing wrong with that at all. It’s good for us to get in touch with that. But at some point, we sort of have to flip the table. And we’ve got to stop being so attached to things we don’t want and get very clear about what we want.”[09:47] “High achievers are addicted to external validation. And that can often drive them to be very successful, but at a certain point, if we lose connection with ourselves, and if we’re constantly looking for validation outside of ourselves, it is very disempowering.” [11:45] “When we take care of ourselves first, we have the energy to take care of others, and we’d become more confident in ourselves.” [25:18] “We’re all under pressure to deliver and so forth. But we need to be selective and sometimes tolerate a little bit of discomfort in the short term, in order to get more done in the long term.”Links and Resources:Winning the Game of Work: Career Happiness and Success on Your Own Termshttps://terrybmcdougall.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/terrybmcdougall/ https://www.marketingmambo.net/1569061Other links and resources:Free Gift from Diane (How to Avoid Crisis) – https://DianeHalfman.com/CrisisBANKCODE – https://MyBankCode.com/VictoryDiane Halfman’s website – http://www.DianeHalfman.comWant to know more about yourself?Some people ask me how to RESET their life.Some people ask me how to be more sensual.Others are wondering how to make more money.How to be more successful.How to start a business.All of these questions and more are what I answer in my programs!Come see me at http://www.DianeHalfman.com
