"Beaucoup d’entre nous vivent dans une économie de rareté, où nous croyons qu’il n’y a pas assez de ressources pour tout le monde et que c’est notre devoir de lutter."
— Esther Perel
Simplified Meaning:
A lot of people think there isn't enough of what they need—like money, jobs, or success—so they feel like they have to keep fighting hard just to get their share. Imagine you and your friends have only one pizza to share, and everyone thinks there's not enough for them. This makes everyone rush and grab as much as they can, worried they won't get any. In real life, this same thinking can make people more anxious, competitive, and stressed, always feeling like there's a shortage. But if they believe there's plenty to go around, they might work together better, share more, and feel less pressure. It's about changing the way we see things from a mindset of lack to one of abundance. This means having faith that there's enough for everyone and we don't always have to compete fiercely.
