SF #236 – Learning Curves Ahead

by

SF #236 - Warning! Learning Curves Ahead - ALBUM ART-ARMordant & McFall discuss how members of our inner circle are the ones who take the brunt of our learning curves. They see what seems like hypocrisy, get the religious anger of our failings as we learn, and hopefully stay strong to the other side.  Learning is the most dangerous game of all – even for those watching from the sidelines.

Mordant adopts a country twang while Charles asks if “you have seen a whole new world?” after listening to the prior two episodes.  The gang reminds us how they are battling in the trenches with us.  We all have to adapt to the learning curve of life and realize our inner circle is going to take the brunt of it while we struggle for air.  To counter this, we all need to work on communicating and “adulting” effectively.  You will get some relationship advice along the way as well as being reminded that time is precious.  It’s time to cut yourself some slack and create space for riding out the learning curve.

In the season of love we find ourselves focused on what other people think – about us, our relationship status, our place in life, and many other things that don’t truly matter.  But, what about that all-important love that all too often get’s missed – self love?  Is it selfish or narcissistic to nurture and love yourself?  Can you even love others if you can’t love yourself first?
