We are traumatizing our experience in the name of thinking we're going to get something right someday by doing it.
Ever met someone who juggles being a fighter, an artist, and a poet? John Perretti is all that and more. In this episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety', John takes listeners on a journey through his multifaceted life. From co-creating Extreme Fighting to holding world records in spearfishing, his resume is nothing short of extraordinary. But it's not just his achievements that make him interesting; it's his profound insights into the human mind and emotions.
John dives deep into the addiction to thought and the common misconception that our thoughts shape reality. He argues that recognizing reality for what it is—separate from our individual thoughts—is crucial for emotional sobriety. Through his unique lens as a martial artist and poet, John shares how simplifying our choices and focusing on the present can help us break free from mental obsessions.
