Ep 297 - The Challenge of Being Honest in a World of Lies

Do you find it hard to be true to who you are while trying to conform to societal expectations? Tim and Steve talk about this quote from Seneca:

“Inwardly everything should be different but our outward face should conform with the crowd.”

Steve discusses the dangers of becoming fake and losing one's sense of identity by conforming too much. Tim shares an anecdote about Funakoshi's student and a lesson he learned about avoiding unnecessary confrontations. He wraps up the show with his concept of 3 circles — and as simplistic as it is — it’s something that might help a lot of us to hear.
