Have you ever needed a fresh perspective so badly, that you just started over instead? Maybe it was by getting a fresh relationship going, or getting into a fresh job or home setting, or starting your life over in a fresh new place.

No matter how many times we change our external setting, we know that eventually we’ll meet the same challenges there, too.

In today’s episode, we’ll learn the idea of giving ourselves a freshie every day. About treating our mental perspective, our belief in our ideas, relationships, and ultimately in ourselves as a discipline that requires as much consistency and attention as diet, exercise, communication, or even caring for a living thing that we’re responsible for.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

Why we look for external change to help us re-motivate.
How hedonistic adaptation causes us to eventually meet the same challenges in new situations.
How friendships, coaching relationships, and other support systems serve the purpose of freshening our belief in ourselves and our ideas, and why that’s not enough.
Examples of how the moment we stop trying is the moment things stop working
How we can use that reality to motivate us to believe in ourselves, our relationships, and our ideas day after day
A “freshie” practice we can normalize and use daily to build the skill and resilience we'll need when things get hardest.
Three examples of how we can support the fresh perspectives of the people around us, through the examples we set and the things we share.
