What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t a lack of talent, luck, or resources—but the lies you’ve been telling yourself?
In this episode of The Spiritual Perspective, I break down the five most common lies that almost everyone believes at some point: the ones that sound practical, even logical, but actually drain your potential and keep you stuck at ground level.
These lies show up in phrases like, “I’ll do it later,” or “I’m just not ready yet.” They disguise themselves as truth, but in reality, they’re delay tactics—stories we tell ourselves to avoid discomfort, risk, and vulnerability.
I’ll share how to recognize these hidden lies in your own life, why they feel so convincing in the moment, and most importantly, how to reframe them so you can take small, consistent steps toward your true purpose.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re circling the same patterns without making real progress, this conversation will help you see what’s really going on—and how to shift into a new perspective.
