I liked the part in the article that said the people who had been able to recover from a psychological problem saw their problem as an enemy in their story, while those who were still struggling with the problem saw it as part of their own character. This idea of stories really has a lot of power.

Thank you Matt.

I completely missed the point that you highlighted about what we struggle with... and it is SO true. When we see something as outside of ourselves it is much easier to vanquish it. Hmmm. So if something is inside, how do we move it outside. Maybe that's where the 3rd person comes in.

My best,

You inspired me, Whitney. I said "no" to something that did not cause me "deep gladness" or fill a "deep hunger" in the world. I now feel a huge relief to be able to discover my dream without the clutter of unwanted commitments!

Janika --

What wonderful news.

I can't wait to hear what you are up to.

My best,

Whitney

About this blog

  • When I took a sabbatical from Wall Street to pursue a different dream and help others live theirs, I learned that women in the U.S. may be placated, even pampered, but because we aren't dreaming, we are also desperate and depressed. Drawing on a variety of sources, ranging from academic studies to pop culture, dare to dream encourages us to dream. And then to act on our dreams.
