Description

Emptiness: When You Don't Do Things For Yourself
There comes a time in our lives that we simply need to stop and ask ourselves for who are we living for. Today, I received a question from a reader that was literally lost in life.
He quit university, he is suffering from serious parental pressure and he seems completely lost. Meanwhile, he is trying to find his space and he is trying to survive all this.
However, at this time, he seems to be motivated and acting as if he was trying to prove his family wrong. And this is exactly my point here.
Whenever you try to do things for others, it usually ends up in disaster. You feel empty because when you accomplish whatever it is that you're trying to find, you feel empty.
And this is exactly what this podcast is about.
