My Ego vs Meditation

Do you struggle to meditate?
Find it boring? Hard to do? Can't sit still? Mind racing around too much? then this episode is perfect for you.
Paul shares his  personal journey from hating meditation to making it an essential part of his life, focussing on the challenges he faced, such as a racing mind and difficulty sitting still, and how he overcame them.
Paul also reflects on his mindset around meditation, admitting that he used to prioritise activities that would boost his status and appearance, rather than focusing on personal growth and health. Through coaching and radical honesty, he came to realise the importance of investing time in his own wellbeing, and this episode explores the role of the ego in resisting meditation, offering insights on changing one's identity to become someone who meditates regularly.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Meditation is now a non-negotiable part of life. Paul initially struggled with meditation because his mind would wander and he found it hard to sit still.
The ego was sabotaging the meditation practice by making it seem boring and difficult.
You must change your identity from someone who struggles with meditation to someone who meditates regularly.
While no one needs to meditate, the benefits and insights gained from the practice are invaluable

BEST MOMENTS
"I went from being someone who hated meditation, hated it, to someone who loves meditation and it's now an absolute non-negotiable in my life."
"If I had seen meditation when I was younger as something that gave me status, boosted my looks, and gave me something to show off so that I could receive validation from people around me, there would have been no stopping me in doing everything I could to be the best meditator I could be."
"I was not going to live the life I truly wanted to live if I didn't invest time in my personal growth and health."
"My crafty ego was the culprit behind making meditation more of a struggle than it needed to be."
