342. Be in Utter Awe of How Damn Far You’ve Come - a podcast by Emily Gough

It’s time we started being more in awe of ourselves.

It’s rare we ever feel truly awe-inspired by anything, let alone our own achievements and obstacles we’ve overcome (or are overcoming). Part of it may be the icky perception of celebrating ourselves, or the pace of life keeping us from ever stopping to smell the roses. We’ve even diluted the word “awesome” to refer to basically anything moderately impressive.

But I did an exercise recently (which I share in this episode) after which I was truly awe-inspired by myself. The revelation brought such a feeling of joy.

And for anyone who, like me, is exceptionally hard on yourself and feeling down about what hasn’t worked out yet, I hope this episode and experience encourages you to stand in total awe of just how damn far you’ve come.

“Learn to be your own anchor in the storm.”

In this episode, we’re talking about:

How our misuse of the word “awesome” has changed our behaviour
How to be less hard on yourself
Visualization exercise for self-appreciation
How to reframe your challenges as successes
How your internal reality influences your external success
How others can inspire your own awe of yourself (a homework exercise)

I love your messages and DM’s following every episode! If this one inspires you, I’d love to chat with you about it (all my contact details are below).
