I hope you don't hate my opposing comment. Societal norms are useful, but sometimes incorrect. The advice on this video is not quite right IMO. The premise of "authenticity" is being put forward as some kind of happiness goal. Authenticity is used as an excuse for bad behavior.q 1. It's not okay to feel embarrassed, though it is somewhat normal. Feelings cannot direct your life. But they also cannot be safely ignored. 2. The feeling will pass as long, as you change your circumstances. It will also pass if you lower your standards and get used to it. 3. Embarrassment is the cost of making bad choices, and also the cost of being a victim.
Thank you
You're so welcome!
Yay!!!!!
I hope it helps!
