The Dangerous Cost of Lowered Standards
In this episode, I delve into the pervasive issue of lowered standards in today's society. Through personal anecdotes and observations, I illustrate how high expectations and accountability, once a norm, are now often met with resistance and labeled as harsh or offensive. I argue that this shift towards niceness over truth is not only weakening individuals but also damaging our larger social fabric. The key takeaway? Hold yourself and others to high standards – it's the only way to foster true growth and integrity.
