What are we doing? Learned helplessness is killing us as the world burns

from Check In With Gwen · host GwenM

Check in with me! How are you doing? Share one success you had today!!💫In today’s Check-In with Gwen, I dive into the concept of learned helplessness. It’s that feeling when you give up because life just keeps throwing curveballs your way. But here’s the truth: it’s not inevitable. Some people keep pushing through, even when faced with relentless challenges. So, how do we combat this? It starts with understanding that you have the power to change your circumstances. ✨ Start by recognizing your intrinsic motivation. What drives you? Tap into that energy and push back against the weight of adversity. The journey isn’t easy, but every step counts. Let’s support each other as we navigate these waters together. Still figuring this out myself, but I’m here for you.
