Meaning that if we\u2019re too close to or have extensive knowledge of someone, it can sometimes lead to a loss of respect for them, or we become careless around them or we lose the ability to see their brilliance. \n\nToday on The Karen Kenney Show, we\u2019re taking a look at how often the people in our lives (including ourselves), can lose their \u201cshine\u201d in our eyes simply because we\u2019ve been around them a lot, have history or interact in the day-to-day.\n\nIn a world of hype and competitiveness and a brain that has a big ol\u2019 negativity bias, we need to train our minds to stay on the lookout for the \u201cgood, beautiful and holy\u201d and to not lose sight of the extraordinary in the ordinary.\n\nDo not take for granted or lose sight of the brilliance around you in your friends, family, furry kids and in your own extraordinary-ness either. Just because the \u201cknuckleheads\u201d around you, might not be able to see it, acknowledge it or reflect it back to you, doesn\u2019t mean it isn\u2019t there.\n\nBe willing and committed to stepping out of the negative bias to cheerlead the ones you love; including yourself!","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/22c50850-e75c-4734-b25e-87faf90de9ff/2026-Podcast-Artwork-512KB.jpg"}
