100NO 279: When To Improve & When To Let Go | The Lure Of Perfection | As The Twig Bends So Grows To Tree

Episode Summary

We get into a deeper philosophical conversation on this episode, centred around Emerson’s one-liner “as the twig bends, so grows the tree.”

Having recently returned from “the island where people forget to die”, we discuss –

  1. Have we fallen into the gap of thinking an area of our life is bad or average when in fact it’s incredible?
  2. What role has social media had in our desire to be “perfect”?
  3. Have we lost the art of being fulfilled at the simplest things?
  4. How do we choose when to improve on something and when to let it go?

And so much more. A challenging conversation to have, hopefully an engrossing conversation to listen to.
