Unlocking Greater Fulfillment in Life and at Work - 29

In this episode, Seth dives into a powerful model for achieving personal and professional fulfillment, inspired by Jamie Kern Lima's work.

This framework centers on the synergy of self-confidence and self-worth, suggesting that fulfillment grows as both dimensions increase.

Seth defines self-confidence as the belief in one’s ability to reach goals and self-worth as the feeling of deservingness and belonging.

When either is lacking, fulfillment can falter.

Episode Highlights:

•Seth introduces a model, adapted from Jamie Kern Lima, aiming to elevate fulfillment across various life areas—relationships, family, career, and finance. He shares how confidence, competence, and belonging contribute to a more fulfilled life.

•Self-confidence, Seth explains, is the belief in one's abilities, distinct from arrogance, while self-worth is the inherent sense of belonging and worthiness. Visualized as a graph, the model places self-confidence on the x-axis and self-worth on the y-axis, with higher levels of each correlating to greater fulfillment.

•Low self-confidence can create a sense of scarcity, affecting personal domains like health and finance. Similarly, low self-worth hinders a feeling of deservedness, impacting overall life satisfaction. The model emphasizes that true fulfillment is shaped internally, rather than by external conditions.

•Seth shares the "K.A.S.H." approach—Knowledge, Attitude, Skills, and Habits—as a path to increase self-confidence. By expanding expertise, fostering a positive mindset, honing skills, and building effective habits, individuals can foster resilience and self-belief.

•To combat low self-worth, Seth contrasts the “Triangle of Death” (shame, fear, guilt) with the “Triangle of Life” (faith, hope, love). He suggests that shifting from negative to positive emotions can foster a healthier self-view and improve fulfillment.

•Seth encourages listeners to rate their self-confidence and self-worth on a 1-10 scale. If scores are lower than desired, they can work on improving K.A.S.H. and adopting the Triangle of Life for growth.

This episode offers valuable insights for anyone seeking a more fulfilled life through a deepened sense of confidence and worth.
