Quotes:

Spencer W. Kimball offered a simple yet profound definition of pride:

"Pride is self-will as opposed to God's will. It is putting man's ways before God's ways."1

Ezra Taft Benson's teachings on pride. Benson expanded on this concept, describing pride as:

"Pride is characterized by 'What do I want out of life?' rather than by 'What would God have me do with my life?' It is self-will as opposed to God's will."

"Pride gets no pleasure out of having something, only out of having more of it than the next man." - C.S. Lewis

President Ezra Taft Benson warned that pride is "the universal sin, the great vice"

"Pride is concerned with who is right. Humility is concerned with what is right." - Ezra Taft Benson

"Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less." - C.S. Lewis

Quotes:

As Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby explains, "Codependent individuals often derive their sense of purpose from meeting the needs of their partner, which can lead to resentment and emotional exhaustion."

As one mental health professional notes, "Children of codependent parents often struggle with self-worth and may develop similar dependency issues."

Dr. Salvador Minuchin describes enmeshment as a state where "family members are overly concerned with each other's emotions, making it difficult for them to develop independently."

As Melody Beattie wisely states, "Once I realized it was okay for me to think about and identify what I wanted, remarkable things began to take place in my life".

As Darlene Lancer notes, "When we let go of our reactions and detach from other people's moods, actions, and words, we take back our power".

Dr. Kristin Davin emphasizes, "Being overly emotionally needy — too demanding, clingy, annoying, fragile — can spell disaster for your relationship". 

Show Notes:

In this episode of Fulfilment Therapy, we explore the spectrum of life paces, from constantly busy "doers" to procrastinating "existers." We discuss the virtues and vices of each extreme, how to recognize escapism, and practical strategies for finding a balanced pace that promotes personal growth and family well-being. Listeners will gain insights on self-awareness, setting realistic goals, and making small, consistent changes for a more fulfilling life.
