Episode 3 Mimetic Desire- is it innate or an imitation

  • Summary

  • Are your desires truly your own, or are you unknowingly chasing someone else’s dreams? In this episode, we explore the surprising ways your inner world is shaped by hidden influences—and how to reclaim your happiness and purpose.

    1. The Power of Labels: Understanding your emotions begins with having the right words for them. Clearer labels create clearer thinking.
    2. Mimetic Desire: Much of what we strive for isn’t innate—it’s imitated from those around us. Recognize the difference between what you want and what you’ve been taught to want.
    3. Happiness Starts Within: True, lasting happiness doesn’t come from external successes. It’s cultivated from a deeper, spiritual connection to your inner self.
    4. The Role of Significance: We all crave to feel significant, but misplaced sources of validation can steer us away from our true potential.
    5. Question Your Goals: Pause and ask yourself—why do I want this? Is it truly meaningful to me, or just a reflection of societal expectations?


    This episode equips you with a fresh perspective on happiness, envy, and success. If you’ve ever felt stuck chasing goals that don’t fulfill you or noticed how quickly your mood shifts based on outside events, this is the key to unlocking deeper clarity and control.
