What is Selfishness?

from The Art of Accomplishment · host Joe Hudson and Brett Kistler

Much of the work that we do in this podcast centers around defining our needs and desires — living into our own self interest, while loving it and trusting it as good. This can conflict with some of the programming that we have gotten from parents and society, which tells us that we should strive for selflessness and avoid selfishness. But what if self interest has the power to lead us to a more refined understanding of what makes us happy? In this episode, we will dive into the distinction between healthy self interest and what society calls selfishness."All self-interest it seems leads, if you allow it to, a more refined understanding of what makes us happy."  **Full transcript can be found here: https://tinyurl.com/AoAEpisode34Learn more about our free workshops and online courses at artofaccomplishment.comWe invite you to experience our work.
