The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby

Most people want to be liked and accepted by others. We constantly try to make a good impression on those around us, whether it’s our boss, co-workers, friends, or family. But why do we feel the need to impress others? There are many reasons why we might try to impress those around us. For example, we might want to gain their approval or admiration. We might also want to fit in and feel like we belong. Or, we might want to increase our social status or position. Whatever the reason, trying to impress others can often backfire. When we try to impress others, we might come across as disingenuous or even arrogant. We might also end up sacrificing our own values and beliefs in an attempt to please others. So, next time you find yourself trying to impress someone, ask yourself why you’re doing it. You might find that it’s not worth the effort.

When we are caught in the act of doing something we know is wrong, our first reaction is usually to deny responsibility and to shift the blame onto someone else. This is known as “blame shifting” or “projection.” Blame shifting is a common defense mechanism used by narcissists and other manipulative people to avoid taking responsibility for their own actions. There are many reasons why we might shift blame onto others. We might do it to protect ourselves from feeling guilty or ashamed. We might do it to avoid being held accountable for our actions. Or, we might do it to manipulate others into feeling sorry for us. Regardless of the reason, blame-shifting is a harmful habit that can lead to a perpetual victim mindset. If you find yourself constantly shifting blame onto others, it’s time to take a step back and do some self-reflection.

It's a question we all ask ourselves at some point: why do we stay in relationships that are bad for us? Whether it's a toxic friendship or a hurtful romantic relationship, it can be hard to let go of something that we've invested so much time and energy into. There are plenty of reasons why we might hold onto these types of relationships. Maybe we convince ourselves that things will get better or that the person will change. Perhaps we're afraid of being alone or we don't want to start over. Or maybe we just don't know how to let go. Whatever the reason, it's important to remember that we always have a choice.
