In this final episode on “Toxic Personalities In The Real World”, Dr. Phil discusses the importance of being unique, essential, and relevant. He urges you to be intentional in your actions and choices, instead of simply reacting to your environment. Do not rely on willpower alone, as it is unreliable and fleeting. Instead, he suggests developing the discipline to stop multitasking, which can increase cognitive and mental efficiency by as much as 40%.
Learn to unclutter your mind by identifying and addressing the thoughts, guilt, grudges, and negative self-talk that you may carry. Clean up one's social circle, only surrounding oneself with people who value and respect you. Pick your battles and do not react to every offense. It is important to be in control of oneself and not allow others to determine one's actions. Dr. Phil concludes by encouraging you to find your passion and purpose in life, as this is key to discovering fulfillment and living a meaningful life.
