    How Deep Into Self Deception Are You

    Derren Brown’s TED Talk on mentalism and the stories we tell ourselves opens a window into the human mind’s peculiar need for illusion and certainty. In this bold dive, we uncover why humans cling to comforting narratives, how self-deception shapes everything from our beliefs to our daily choices, and whether it’s even possible to live without these invisible scripts. Using Brown’s insights on mentalism, we explore the psychology of self and question if anyone is truly living their own life—or just the stories handed to them. Are you ready to confront the fictions you’ve crafted around your identity? Join me in unraveling the illusions we’re all trapped in.

    How Can I Be More Normal?

    We are – almost all of us – deeply attracted to the idea of being normal. But what if our idea of ‘normal’ isn’t normal? A plea for a broader definition of an important term.

We’re acutely receptive to group dynamics and sensitive to where we fit in – or the ways in which we don’t. No matter how much we praise individualism and see ourselves as unique we are, in fact, deeply influenced by our picture of what is ‘normal’ in our society…” You can read more on this and other subjects here: https://goo.gl/Uw3ULy MORE SCHOOL OF LIFE Watch more films on SELF in our playlist: http://bit.ly/TSOLself SOCIAL MEDIA Feel free to follow us at the links below: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theschooloflifelondon/ X: https://twitter.com/TheSchoolOfLife Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theschooloflifelondon/ CREDITS Produced in collaboration with: Tomás Pichardo-Espaillat https://vimeo.com/tomatico #TheSchoolOfLife Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Problem With Perfectionism

    We aim for perfection without a correct idea of what perfection might demand from us. To strengthen our resolve, we need to improve our picture of what sacrifices any achievement will demand.

Get the best of The School of Life delivered straight to your inbox: https://t.ly/W6_ni FURTHER READING “Perfectionism is the unreasonable and self-defeating ambition of getting something absolutely right – which makes us difficult to be around and punishing to live within. The origins of perfectionism lie in the imagination, in the ease with which we can conjure up a picture of an ideal state of affairs, compared with the monstrous difficulty of bringing such a state into being by ourselves. The sickness of perfectionism gestates in the fertile gap between our noble visions and our mediocre reality…” You can read more on this and other subjects here: https://goo.gl/gtPMbC MORE SCHOOL OF LIFE Watch more films on SELF in our playlist: http://bit.ly/TSOLself SOCIAL MEDIA Feel free to follow us at the links below: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theschooloflifelondon/ X: https://twitter.com/TheSchoolOfLife Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theschooloflifelondon/ CREDITS Produced in collaboration with: Avi Ofer https://www.aviofer.com/ #TheSchoolOfLife Learn more about your ad choices.
