Episode 2903: Life’s problems can feel overwhelming, but many have a simple solution. Nia Shanks shares a refreshingly honest approach using a straightforward flowchart: if you can influence the outcome, take action; if not, let it go. By applying this mindset, everyday frustrations lose their power, and real change becomes possible, whether it’s helping a cause, downsizing for happiness, or simply refusing to waste energy on complaints. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.niashanks.com/life-problems/ Quotes to ponder: "Can I influence the outcome? If no, well then, shut up and move on. If yes, great! Now shut up and do something productive." "You can’t change people, but you can be the best version of yourself, and this can have a positive influence on those around you." "Oftentimes we’d be better off choosing a simple, quality action rather than a complicated course of action filled with unnecessary filler and fluff." Learn more about your ad choices.
