Harsh Truths About Life You Need to Accept? | ASQ PODCAST S2 E49

There are some harsh truths about life people don't like to hear, but if you want to be happy, you need to accept them. We all want happiness, but not many of us actually attain it. People keep doing the same things while expecting different results. But that's just not how life works.

Every Individual Needs a Revolution to Evolve | ASQ PODCAST S2 E48

You have heard about many revolutions and know that every human being needs a revolution to evolve. But did you know why? According to Carl Jung, every individual is in need of a revolution, which consists of a few stages: destruction, breakthrough, and reconstruction. While there are no shortcuts, this process is needed for gradual self-development and long-term change.

It is said that the only reason for a revolution is so we may expand our minds and become more knowledgeable. The revolution that one needs to undergo is a meaningful journey. This should not be a process of undoing and removal, but a process of adding and integrating the different parts of ourselves; our direct experiences with the world, our reactions to said experiences, and then finally our understandings. 

How we approach this process is up to each individual; certain people will have to go through different obstacles than others. Each person has his/her own unique set of circumstances that they will have to overcome (or succumb to) in order to succeed as well.

Goal Setting, Planning, and Problem Solving | ASQ PODCAST S2 E46

In this episode of the A Souls Quest podcast, Omar and I will discuss the importance of understanding the importance of goal setting, planning, and problem-solving. Stay tuned.

Goal setting, planning, and problem-solving are at the core of life. You could say that you will succeed or fail based on your skills in these areas. It's obvious that no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes and has times when they need a second chance. The beauty of having goals is that you get better every time you try again. Not only do you get better, but you learn more about yourself and what steps to take next time. This episode shares our story of learning to set goals and how we’ve applied them to life and our quest. 

So, take time to understand your personal values and set goals you can achieve. Plan what you need to do to achieve these goals and break them down into smaller sub-goals with action steps that will get you where you want to be. Try solving problems in new and creative ways; look for alternative solutions, and don't ever give up.

Why Core Values Matter (Now More Than Ever) | ASQ PODCAST S2 E45

In this episode of the A Souls Quest podcast, Omar and I will discuss the importance of understanding values or as Maslow calls them our basic human needs. Stay tuned.

What are values? Really, they are what keeps each of us moving forward. As Maslow stated in his Hierarchy of Needs, we have basic physiological needs. Physiological needs include things like food and water, if these are not met we can't survive. We also have safety and security needs, including shelter, warmth, and awareness that our basic human needs are being met. Maslow also notes it's our sense of belongingness, this is more social-based but includes feelings a person has when they belong to a group or organization. The last set up self-esteem needs includes developing a positive self-evaluation and accomplishment.

Core values are not a fixed set but are molded out of an individual’s experiences. Continual learning about oneself is important for success and for happiness. And values remain fluid, the more we learn about ourselves, the more we can use our experience to develop a better understanding of how we work and how we can improve. Our values either liberate us or imprison us in low self-esteem, underachievement, poor enrichment, and failing health.

Sympathy Vs Empathy: What Are The Differences? | ASQ PODCAST S2 E44

You are currently watching Sympathy Vs Empathy: What Are The Differences? | ASQ PODCAST S2 E44.

As fellow humans, we've all experienced both sympathy and empathy. These two concepts are often tossed around in conversation, but do we really have a clear understanding of the differences between them? We are not just talking about a fundamental difference, but also the subtle nuances at work in achieving one state of mind as opposed to another. The difference between sympathy and empathy is more abstract than concrete. But both can have a positive impact on human behavior, and that's something worth keeping in mind at all times. No matter your thoughts on the differences between these concepts, keep these differences in mind when dealing with those around you—your actions will likely affect them in a positive way.

S2 E43 Social Awareness and Why Is It Important? | ASQ PODCAST S2 E43

Social awareness is an important topic. We'll look at its definition, how it relates to emotional intelligence, and how these concepts are connected to public awareness. Social awareness is a buzzword if I ever heard one—and it is certainly something that most people want to master, but few actually know how to go about doing so effectively. 

Social awareness is the ability to recognize and understand other people's emotions, needs, and behaviors. It is related to emotional intelligence, which is the ability to perceive, assess, and manage one's own emotions and those of others.

Social awareness involves being able to see the world from another person's perspective—understanding that their feelings or thoughts may be different from your own. People with high levels of social awareness are better able to pick up on social cues and can often guess how someone else feels or what they're thinking without being told directly.

It's important because it sets a foundation for more advanced emotional intelligence skills—like empathy, self-management, and relationship management—which will help you get along with others more easily when interacting socially and at work.
