The Solomon Paradox: Why We Struggle with Our Own Advice

Having as many different perspectives as possible is often very helpful.
Ever find yourself dishing out great advice but failing to follow it in your own life? This episode of 'The One You Feed' tackles this all-too-common phenomenon known as the Solomon Paradox. Host Eric Zimmer dives into the story of King Solomon, the legendary wise ruler who could solve everyone else's problems but stumbled in his personal decisions. This paradox highlights how we often see others' situations more clearly than our own.
Eric explores why this happens and how we can overcome it. He suggests practical ways to step outside our own heads, like seeking advice from friends, getting coaching, or even imagining what we'd tell someone else in our shoes. If you've ever felt stuck in your own thoughts and wished for a clearer perspective, this episode offers some eye-opening insights and actionable tips. Tune in to learn how to make better decisions and handle life's challenges more effectively.
