Stop Labeling People | Focus on Behavior Instead (Evy Poumpouras)

The Evy Effect1:06

Transcription

It's naive of us to think that people will not cause you harm because there are some people that will. I know this as a former criminal investigator. You can't live in la-la land. That's reality.

But if I know this, I understand this, I'm going to move through the world in the best way I can. And I'm going to I'm not going to be surprised when people cause me harm. I'm aware of it. I'm not expecting it, but when it does happen, I have the understanding that these people exist in the world.

They move through the world and most people that cause you harm don't think they're doing anything to you. They're not intentionally doing it. They will validate it. I have interviewed countless people. In the interview with people who committed horrible crimes against other people, and they will sit down and they will validate or justify to me, I did this here's my reason.

You can sell anything to yourself. We've all done it. You've heard people, I've heard people, and when we did it, we sold it to ourselves a certain way. Well, I'm doing this because of X, Y, and Z. So, maybe you sell it to yourself like, well, this is how it works for me. But in the end, you still end up hurting someone else.
