It's easy to have high standards for everyone else, but what about holding yourself to those same standards?
Ever wondered why it's so easy to set high standards for others but not for yourself? In this episode of Levelheaded Talk, Dr. Andrea Vitz dives into the importance of maintaining healthy standards as a form of self-kindness. Joined by Jon Leon Guerrero, they discuss how setting and upholding personal standards can lead to better relationships, improved performance, and greater satisfaction in life. Dr.
Vitz emphasises that the highest standards should be applied to oneself, rather than projecting them onto others. This approach helps in simplifying emotional sobriety and recognising how we unconsciously defend our old identities. The conversation touches on various behaviours, from drinking habits to everyday routines, and how these can anchor us to outdated self-perceptions. Dr.
Vitz encourages listeners to be honest about their true goals and to work diligently towards them, whether it's giving up an unhealthy habit or achieving a personal milestone. The episode is filled with practical advice and relatable anecdotes that make the complex topic of emotional sobriety more approachable. If you're looking for ways to be kinder to yourself while striving for personal growth, this episode is a must-listen.
