@harmonycorrupted@kinkycats.org Agree 💯! And we often do not even notice when we do it. Theory from “Mastery” by George Leonard: Your environment homeostasizes too. The people around you are also invested in you staying the same — they may subtly (or not so subtly) pressure you back to your old self. —- As evolved primates we’re comfortable with patterns and routines…when those in the tribe change it immediately unbalances our environment and reference points. Hate that I am quoting another self-help “guru”, but often remember Brian Tracy saying we also hold everyone to their word without the ability for them to change their mind. “But you said this!” “Yes, but I thought about it and I’ve changed my mind,” “But you said THIS!” “Yes, motherf*cker!…but 👏 I’ve 👏 changed 👏 my 👏 MIND!!!” (paraphrasing)

  • @paulywill@mstdn.ca thank you for the fantastic quotes and the laugh!!😁 That's most definitely true! People get stuck on the BS "roles" they assign themselves and others, of course capitalist propaganda encourages it... learning to be truly open-minded is a life long process, I really wish more people were engaging in it! Respectful debates (not with fascists, ofc!), opening yourself up to new things and perspectives, being happy for others without jealousy...
