Ep.23 - Living to ‘help others’ is toxic

In this episode we discuss how the brave and more difficult path is to live for ourselves.  How we can hide in 'helping others' because the focus is off of ourself, and more insidiously, we can win brownie points at the time and be the goodie goodie while we hide.  

We discuss how the ego attempts to make itself the moral 'goodie', and how the way to mitigate being manipulated is to anchor to our own value system. The more we are anchored to our own value system, the less sensitive we are to others opinions. 

Perhaps the biggest service we can give to the world and to other people is to focus on ourselves, and live our fullest and truest expression.
