(And that we\u2019re still on the quest for a listener in Antarctica.)\n\u2022 How perfectionism can stop some people from acting on their good impulses\n\u2022 The fact that it really is the thought that counts and most people just want to be remembered--they don\u2019t care how.\n\u2022 The story that sparked this episode topic: how Shannon was able to soothe a little girl at a coffee shop (and the cartoon she drew of it)\n\u2022 How it\u2019s so easy to censor yourself and not act on the impulse to help others\n\u2022 One easy way to make someone\u2019s day: Give directions to someone who appears lost\n\u2022 The complexity of Shannon\u2019s neighborhood that allows her to help many lost people\n\u2022 How Shannon\u2019s picking up of garbage on her training walks started as a good impulse\n\u2022 Making it easy to act on good impulses\n\u2022 The challenge of letting go of perfectionism around acting on good impulses\n\u2022 How perfectionism can really trip us up on writing thank-you notes\n\nSee the show notes at www.gettingtogoodenough.com for links!","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/cd2e0d56-1e2f-481a-8571-c4663350c6a6/648i5bBT0OJL-jqDq5kKTfH1.png"}
