The Later Mindset is Harming Us

Ep. 229

In today's fast-paced world, the later mindset has become all too common. We constantly put off important tasks and decisions until the last minute, believing that we work better under pressure. However, this procrastination is harming us in more ways than one. Firstly, the stress and anxiety that come with leaving things to the last minute can hurt our mental health. Constantly rushing to meet deadlines and scrambling to finish tasks can lead to burnout and decreased productivity. Secondly, by putting things off until later, we miss opportunities for growth and self-improvement. We fail to take advantage of the present moment and instead choose to delay our progress. It is time to break free from the latter mindset and prioritize our well-being and personal development. By taking action now rather than later, we can lead happier, healthier lives filled with success and fulfillment.

  • 236. Compatibility vs Your Standards in Dating

    14:54
    In the world of dating, individuals often struggle to find a balance between compatibility and their own personal standards. Compatibility refers to the ability of two people to get along well and have a harmonious relationship, while personal standards are the criteria that individuals use to judge potential partners. Many people believe that compatibility is the most important factor in a successful relationship. They argue that shared values, interests, and communication styles are crucial for long-term happiness. However, others argue that personal standards should not be compromised in order to achieve compatibility. It is essential for individuals to carefully consider both compatibility and their own standards when entering into a new relationship. While it is important to have common ground with a partner, it is equally important to uphold one's own values and beliefs. Finding a balance between these two factors can lead to a healthy and fulfilling relationship. While compatibility is important in dating, it should not come at the expense of one's personal standards. By carefully considering both factors, individuals can increase their chances of finding a successful and fulfilling relationship.

  • 234. Reasons Why Pain Makes You A Better Person

    10:55
    Pain, although difficult to endure, has a transformative power that can make us better individuals. It catalyzes growth, pushing us to reflect deeply on our lives, values, and priorities. Pain teaches us empathy and compassion, as it reminds us of our shared humanity and the struggles others may be facing. It fosters resilience and strength, as we learn to overcome adversity and develop coping mechanisms. Pain also humbles us, grounding us in the realization that life is not always smooth and that we must appreciate the moments of joy and happiness. By navigating through pain, we gain wisdom, maturity, and a greater appreciation for the beauty and fragility of life. Ultimately, the pain has the potential to make us better people by shaping our character, deepening our understanding of ourselves and others, and inspiring us to make positive changes in our lives and the lives of those around us.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub) Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph) Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub on TikTok
  • 233. Is it Time to Own a House?

    13:29
    Owning a house comes with a multitude of benefits that can greatly enhance one's quality of life. One of the most significant advantages is the sense of stability and security that comes with homeownership. Unlike renting, owning a house provides a sense of permanence and control over one's living situation. Additionally, owning a house can be a smart financial investment. Property values tend to appreciate over time, meaning that homeowners can build equity in their homes and potentially see a return on their investment when they decide to sell. Furthermore, owning a house allows individuals to customize their living space to suit their preferences and needs, whether it be through renovations or landscaping. Overall, owning a house offers numerous benefits that can improve both one's financial well-being and overall quality of life. It is an important milestone that many aspire to achieve for these very reasons.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub) Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph) Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub on TikTok
  • 232. Building My Identity Outside Angely of Access Travel

    14:08
    It is easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of building a successful business or advancing in our careers. However, it is important to remember that our identity should not be solely defined by our professional achievements. Building my identity outside my business and career has been a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. I have found fulfillment in pursuing hobbies, volunteering for causes I am passionate about, and spending quality time with loved ones. These activities have allowed me to develop a well-rounded sense of self and have provided me with a sense of purpose beyond the confines of my work life. By nurturing relationships, exploring new interests, and engaging in meaningful experiences outside of work, I have cultivated a strong sense of identity that goes beyond what I do for a living. This has not only enriched my personal life but has also made me a more fulfilled and balanced individual overall. Ultimately, finding value in who we are as individuals outside of our professional roles is essential for leading a fulfilling and meaningful life.

  • 231. The Most Selfless Thing is to be Selfish

    13:27
    In a world that often glorifies selflessness and sacrifice, it may seem counterintuitive to suggest that being selfish can be a positive thing. However, there are times when putting yourself first is not only necessary but also the most selfless act you can do.Self-care is essential for maintaining mental, emotional, and physical well-being. By prioritizing your own needs and taking care of yourself, you are better equipped to help others and contribute positively to the world around you. Neglecting your own needs in favor of constantly putting others first can lead to burnout, and resentment, and ultimately hinder your ability to truly be there for those who need you. Being selfish sometimes means setting boundaries, saying no when necessary, and taking time for yourself without feeling guilty. It means recognizing your worth and valuing your own needs just as much as you value the needs of others. In this way, being selfish can be the most selfless thing you can do.

  • 230. Are You Living for You or Other People?

    17:03
    Are You Living for You or Other People? It is easy to get caught up in the expectations and opinions of others. We often find ourselves living our lives according to what we think will please those around us, rather than following our desires and passions. But the question remains: are we truly living for ourselves or other people? Living for others can lead to a life filled with resentment and regret. It is important to remember that our happiness should not be dependent on the approval of others. True fulfillment comes from following our dreams and aspirations, regardless of what others may think. It is crucial to take the time to reflect on our values and beliefs and make decisions based on what truly makes us happy. By living authentically and staying true to ourselves, we can lead a more fulfilling and meaningful life. So ask yourself: are you living for yourself or other people? The answer may surprise you.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub)Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph)Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile
  • 228. Handling Hate and Jealousy with Ana Mae

    36:19
    Hate and jealousy are two powerful emotions that can consume individuals and poison relationships. When faced with hate and jealousy, it is important to remember to stay true to oneself and not let these negative emotions dictate one's actions. Handling hate requires a strong sense of self-awareness and the ability to rise above the negativity. It is important to understand that hate often stems from insecurity or fear, and responding with kindness and compassion can help diffuse the situation. Jealousy, on the other hand, can be just as damaging if left unchecked. It is crucial to communicate openly and honestly with others about feelings of jealousy, rather than letting them fester and grow into resentment. In conclusion, handling hate and jealousy requires emotional maturity, self-reflection, and open communication. By approaching these emotions with understanding and empathy, we can navigate through difficult situations with grace and integrity.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub)Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph)Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile
