Question societal norms and expectations from "summary" of Everything That Remains by Joshua Fields Millburn,Ryan Nicodemus
Do you ever stop to consider why you do the things you do? Why you work at a job you don't love, just to buy things you don't need? Why you follow the same routine day in and day out, even though it doesn't bring you joy or fulfillment?Chances are, you're simply following the societal norms and expectations that have been ingrained in you since birth. You're told to go to school, get a good job, buy a big house, and fill it with stuff. But what if that's not what truly makes you happy? What if there's more to life than just going through the motions? Questioning societal norms and expectations means taking a step back and examining why you do the things you do. It means challenging the status quo and asking yourself if the life you're living is truly the one you want. It means being brave enough to forge your own path, even if it goes against what everyone else is doing. When you start to question societal norms and expectations, you open yourself up to a world of possibilities. You begin to see that there are other ways to live, other paths to follow. You start to prioritize what truly matters to you, rather than what society tells you should matter. It's not an easy journey, questioning everything you've ever known. It requires courage, introspection, and a willingness to be different. But in the end, it can lead to a life that is more authentic, more fulfilling, and more in line with your true values and desires. So take a moment to pause and reflect on the life you're living. Are you following your own path, or simply going along with the crowd? Are you truly happy, or are you just pretending to be? It's never too late to question societal norms and expectations and start living a life that is true to you.
