Habits on Purpose

113. What Are You Making Things Mean?


Listen Later

If you have a conversation with someone and there is silence, how often do you make this mean that they don't like you, or you have annoyed them, or that you must have done something wrong? When you draw conclusions, you place something in a context and give it meaning, often based on past events and circumstances. Sometimes this meaning can be useful but other times it will weigh you down and make you feel stuck. So how do you go from meaning-making that is not useful yet has been repeated for decades to meaning-making that actually serves you?

I show you how to start paying attention to what you're making things mean and why doing so will help you be more deliberate about how you feel, show up, and experience life. Discover the difference between meaning-making that is useful and meaning-making that makes things harder for yourself, and learn how to pay attention to the conclusions you draw about yourself and others.
