More, better, different is sufficiency, and it is something that I struggle with on a day-to-Day basis.
Ever feel like you're stuck in an endless cycle of wanting more, striving for better, and craving something different? Michael Stoller gets it. In this episode of 'My Blueprint: Struggle Towards Emotional Sobriety', he introduces us to what he calls the MBD virus. This isn't a virus you'll find in a medical textbook; it's a metaphor for our society's relentless pursuit of more, better, and different things.
Michael believes this mindset is like a disease, one that can lead us down a path of unhealthy coping mechanisms as we try to manage our emotions like happiness, anger, sadness, fear, guilt, and shame. But don't lose hope just yet. Michael suggests that the antidote to this 'virus' is something called sufficiency. It's about finding contentment and satisfaction in what you already have, rather than constantly chasing after more.
He explains that sufficiency is like a muscle—it needs to be exercised and strengthened over time. Through his candid storytelling and practical advice, Michael encourages listeners to examine their lives and question if they're caught in the MBD trap. His insights offer a fresh perspective on personal growth and emotional sobriety. Tune in to discover how embracing sufficiency can transform your life.
