In this episode, we discuss the idea from the Talmud that just like there are rewards in life for pursuing, so too there can be rewards for stopping...
As we explore the sunken costs of time, energy, emotions, money and other considerations that often leave us trying to force our will upon relationships, jobs, former decisions, community institutions etc. that are no longer right for us, we:
-learn how to garner the strength to go down new paths and leave ones that are no longer ideal for us.
-learn how to let go of the things we are attached to that are bad for us
-learn how to deal with endings better and identify the 5 E's of potential within endings: Energize, encode, edit, evaluate and elevate
-learn an exercise for evaluating whether we are fooling ourselves by thinking a situation can get better, and learn a tool for garnering the bravery to go down the new path.
