We are generally conditioned by society to focus on outcomes, achievements, winning, etc. A major issue with this mindset is how we show up along the way to the finish line and, of course, when we “fail”. Hyper-focus on the outcome tends to create hyper-focus on controlling everyone and everything imaginable along the way. This can cause many problems including stress, misunderstanding, judgment, disappointment, and resentment. In this episode, we discuss the ego’s controlling tendency and the delicate balance between control and faith.
