032 The Brick Wall

032 The Brick Wall

Author: Clare Dimond September 30, 2024 Duration: 19:22

This episode is called “The Brick Wall”, because we're talking about a dead end and a complete full stop to the wants and needs to secure which cannot be secured. And that’s the identity. Identity relies on the belief system of being a separate, controlling entity. It's the attempt to control the experience of being, to control what we think of ourselves and what other people think of ourselves. Every single want that relates to controlling the experience of being is a 100% unfulfillable quest. And yet, our entire lives are dedicated to fulfilling these wants, and enormous industries are dedicated to maintaining these wants in place in the guise of fulfilling them. 

So today we’re going to unpack this wild goose chase that is securing the ego identity, and we’ll see how we can go in a different direction, other than hitting the brick wall over and over again.  

What is Covered: 

-How the beauty industry and alcohol industry exploit our fundamental insecurity

-Why the wants and desires that begin and end with ‘me’ are completely unachievable

-Why our wants attempt to control the uncontrollable and are impossible to observe and measure

-How to discern if what you want is achievable and actionable

-How to learn to welcome a critique and not feel threatened by it

-The path to ultimate sanity

There's a quiet sense many of us carry, a feeling that the constant chase for better strategies in work, health, and life is missing the point. Superpowered Mind with Clare Dimond speaks directly to that intuition. Hosted by Clare Dimond, this podcast moves beyond the usual self-improishment advice to explore a foundational shift in how we experience thought itself. It’s for anyone who suspects that real peace and clarity aren't another hack away, but emerge from a different understanding of our own minds. Conversations here aren't about adding more techniques to your routine; they gently point you toward the innate resilience and well-being that get obscured by stress and overthinking. Whether you're navigating business decisions, personal fitness goals, or mental quietude, this podcast offers a space to consider how a change in perspective alters everything. You'll find episodes that feel like a series of quiet revelations, stripping away complexity to reveal the simplicity of a mind operating freely, without the struggle we so often assume is mandatory. It’s an invitation to stop seeking a superpower and to start recognizing the one you’ve always had.
