📆Embrace a Balanced New Year: Breaking Free from New Year's Resolutions
Learn more about the research behind the pitfalls of New Year’s resolutions and discover helpful strategies to help you navigate 2024.
The Overs - overworking, overachieving, overthinking, overexplaining, overgiving, overcommitting, and overaccommodating - are coping mechanisms aimed at creating psychological safety.
High-achievers acknowledge the negative impact of overfunctioning but justify it as necessary for staying "relevant" or "on top." However, overdoing harms our well-being.
Surprisingly, a 2018 meta-analysis revealed no correlation between actual performance and the perfectionism typical of overachievers.
To break free from the grip of the Overs in the coming year, it's essential to recognize them as safety-seeking mechanisms.
Here are some strategies to help you overcome overdoing in your life:
🤗 Heal Your Feelings Of Being Unsafe
🚧Set New Boundaries
🛑Differentiate Between Danger and Dislike
🫅Be Your Own Authority
As we embark on the New Year, let's challenge the notion that doing more is always better. Growth is indeed desirable, but true progress lies in understanding the role of fear in driving our behavior. By cultivating a conscious awareness of our brain's mechanisms, we can build a lasting sense of inner security – the ultimate goal for the year ahead.
