“Let go of the outcome” is such a modern mantra, isn't it? Let go of the outcome and just focus on the process. And that mantra gets very confusing, because why would we let go of an outcome that is highly achievable and highly beneficial either to us, or to others, or to the world? Think about the work of surgeons and what would happen if they let go of the outcome.
The problem is that letting go of the outcome can start to imply to not even try, not think about it, it almost becomes an opt-out from effort. So in this episode, we’re going to bin “let go of the outcome” and start thinking about achievable and unachievable wants instead.
What is Covered:
-Why focusing on the outcome creates so much stress
-Learning to understand unachievable wants
-What happens when “I” is both the subject and the object of a want
-How to avoid wanting outcomes that are impossible to pin down
-Why sometimes the wanted outcome is unrelated to the action being taken
-The impossibility of resisting or fixing certain emotion in place
-The value of putting all the research, effort and hard work only into achievable outcomes
