We have a tendency to put rose coloured glasses on many things in life – including the past. It’s easy to look back on past situations that weren’t good for us and only focus on the good things about them. Looking back at the crazy social life you had in your younger years and remembering all the fun times – forgetting how it made you unreliable at work because of sick days, abusing your body through drugs and…
Recently a conversation I was having with one of my Project Self Worth members reminded me of something my coach had said on one of her podcasts about people robbing themselves of joy.
