In this fascinating episode, Dr. Shaw put forth the notion that SINCERITY leads to greater fulfillment.  On the surface that may seem like a leap, but as she discusses and illustrates how it works, and it comes together as a smart, interesting and very true theory.  She begins by talking about the power of the word, and specifically, she talks about words of affirmation.  For example, if words of affirmation are offered without sincerity, they won't have the power.  The same thing goes for actions in addition to words... actions that should be sincere but are not will not be as fulfilling as actions offered and received with sincerity.  As with all of Dr. Shaw's teaching and podcasts, listen and ponder, and watch the puzzle pieces of life fit together.
