If we're going to use this powerful mind that we have in a positive way, we need to be more conscious of what we're doing, because we're not, we're on autopilot.
Ever feel like you're stuck in a story that's holding you back? In this thought-provoking episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer chats with Tom Asacker, a renowned speaker and author. Tom's impressive background includes stints as a General Electric executive and strategic adviser to Fortune-listed companies, but it's his insights on personal growth that truly shine here.
Tom discusses his book *I Am Keats: Escape Your Mind and Free Yourself*, drawing parallels between the lives of poets John Keats and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He challenges the notion that our stories define us, arguing that once we cling to a narrative, we halt any potential for change. This episode delves into the difference between fact and truth, highlighting how our perceptions shape our reality.
Tom also touches on how technology can trick us into thinking we're in control and emphasizes that true understanding of life comes from living it, not just reading about it. He explores the role of our reasoning mind in setting us apart from other animals and how being present and conscious can lead to a more fulfilling life. The conversation takes a compassionate turn as Tom examines the power of love and compassion in shaping our beliefs and finding meaning.
He also discusses Act Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and the complexities of depression, offering valuable insights for anyone seeking to improve their mental and emotional well-being. If you're ready to break free from limiting stories and embrace a more conscious way of living, this episode is packed with wisdom and practical advice.
