# 93 - The Push for Perceived Achievement

Ask The Lemon Tree Coaching Podcast a Question. Text the TLT Pod today.This week, I'm digging into a fascinating and often misunderstood aspect of our lives: the push for perceived achievement. This brings about many questions: How do we measure success? Why are we driven to achieve certain things, and what role does perception—our internal or external view of achievement—play in that drive, especially when the recognition of that achievement might not be as tangible as we think? I’ll discuss the concepts of social comparison, intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation, the role of self-worth, and how the illusion of success can sometimes drive us harder than any concrete goal.Social Media LinksThe Lemon Tree Coaching PodcastInstagram TwitterTeacher Resources (really, for anyone)The Lemon Tree by AKSBox BreathingOther Important Resources:National Teen Dating Abuse Helpline call (866) 331-9474, or text: loveis to 225loveisrespect.orgA Call For Change Helpline (877) 898-3411.
