The False Gods We Worship

The False Gods We Worship is the topic of today’s show.  If you want to hit a brick wall in life and business, you might as well lay down at the altar of algorithms, fake news, and bullshit measures of success. All these false Gods we worship are designed to create fear – the fear of not being popular, rich, skinny, smart, or “whatever” enough. It’s no wonder why we’re so depressed and anxious! Whether you’re an entrepreneur or not, listen up because you’ve likely been following one of the seven false gods that Judi shares with us today.  

Today on Yes, And:

  • Stop chasing that damn blue check mark!
  • What actually happens when you hit 10k on the ‘gram
  • It’s okay to be inspired by others but then go. be. you
  • Worshiping the god of your own health and wellness

Top Quotes: 

  1. “At the end of the day, you can still have a blue check, be hacked, and have things made up about you. I guess it helps us understand who the real Snoop Dogg or J-Lo is, but, for the rest of us, we can start to obsess over this blue check as if our life depended on it.”
  2. “Show up, build community, do you, and have fun, but keep your eyes on your own paper. Spend time investing in revenue-generating activities that will grow your business and bring value and joy into your life. That’s the only measure of success that really matters in the long run.”
  3. “Will your followers miss you when you’re gone? Maybe. But I think the more important question to ask is, who will be there with me when I’m going.”
  4. “The freelance economy is incredible. There are so many independent contractors that can help you grow your business, giving you the freedom of flexibility.”
  5. “We have to be careful of making other people our leaders. At the end of the day, unless you really know someone, we’re all strangers.”
