Rather than trying to fix or suppress scarcity mindset, risk aversion, anxiety, if you want to begin to improve the situation, I find that reading a book like Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach is incredibly helpful.

Why people recommend it
Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach is a widely praised self-help and psychology book that integrates Buddhist mindfulness teachings with Western psychotherapy to help readers overcome self-doubt, shame, and emotional suffering. The book has been championed by Tim Ferriss on multiple platforms, including The Tim Ferriss Show and The Rich Roll Podcast, where he admitted that despite initially being repelled by its generic title on the recommendation of a neuroscience PhD, he found immense value in its pages. Ferriss noted that the first fifty to one hundred pages provided profound insights for examining difficult emotions and confronting what individuals are typically unwilling to feel, prompting him to reread the work and regularly recommend it to listeners dealing with self-criticism. Dr. BJ Miller also recommended the book on The Tim Ferriss Show, explaining that he found it particularly helpful for navigating mindfulness practices and letting go of deep-seated grudges. Throughout these discussions, the speakers emphasized how Tara Brach's practical framework offers a transformative path toward emotional awareness and self-compassion, making it a staple resource for individuals seeking mental health support and personal growth without relying on traditional or overly clinical approaches.
