Episode 80: The Stories We Tell Ourselves (And Why They Hold Us Back)
from Zero Distortion with Russ Bates · host batesruss3
We all tell ourselves stories. "I'm too old." "I don't have time." "I'm just being realistic." "I'll start next week." "They have advantages I don't have." Some of those stories may feel true. Some may even contain elements of truth. But what happens when the story you're telling yourself becomes the very thing holding you back? In this episode of Zero Distortion, Russ explores how the narratives we create about our circumstances, limitations, and identities can quietly shape our decisions, our confidence, and ultimately our future. The question isn't whether you're telling yourself stories. The question is whether those stories are helping you move forward—or keeping you exactly where you are. #ZeroDistortion #PersonalGrowth #Mindset #SelfImprovement #Accountability #Success #Motivation #LifeLessons
