I just read a blog by Brianna West about unconsciously sabotaging your progress in life.
The most fascinating take away from the article is the work of psychologist Gay Henricks. He uses this term to describe the amount of happiness we’re used to or that we think is appropriate for us.
Once we surpass our “upper limit”—i.e., our lives have become better than we’re used to—we start self-sabotaging to bring ourselves back to what’s comfortable.
