Personal Myth

Los mitos son historias anónimas, transmitidas de generación en generación, y en ellas late la sabiduría y excepcionalidad de las sociedades humanas. El «conócete a ti mismo» ha quedado relegado al «sé tú mismo». El moderno eslogan (principio y fin de tantos libros de autoayuda) nos dice que debemos ser simplemente lo que somos, actuar de manera natural y espontánea, vivir sin complejos, despreocuparnos de todo… Pues bien, los mitos nos curan justamente de eso, nos ayudan a no caer en la trampa de la banalidad.

Striving not to be average is exhausting and breaking us. Our pursuit of success and perfection is blinding us to the everyday pleasures of the ordinary. Trying to be across our friends, our family, social media, our careers and our hobbies all the time can be damaging. We have been sold the story that we can do it all, that we are superhuman and that being above average is the path to success and happiness. But it's time we pressed pause. It's time to rediscover our appreciation of the ordinary and the average - that space where most of the best things happen.

Aquí están las respuestas a las preguntas que nos hacemos sobre nuestra manera de expresarnos y la de los demás, mientras se aclaran los mitos que la mayoría cree verdades.

Éste es un audiolibro paradójico. Una paradoja es una contradicción imposible de resolver, y éste es uno de sus encantos. El otro es que, cuando se la identifica y se le reconoce su invencible imposibilidad, ya no es necesario resolverla. Podríamos señalar que una diferencia importante con la mayoría de los otros libros “como éste” es que los problemas que aquí se examinan y las ideas que se proponen provienen del trabajo diario en el consultorio con pacientes que vienen a buscar ayuda terapéutica para resolver sus obstáculos emocionales.
