Personal Growth vs Contentment (discussion in the park)

Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/uuYLpvt9pTY4PRf46

WHAT IS IT? The discussion topic of this meetup is the sometimes conflictual relationship between our need for personal growth and development on one side, and our need for contentment and self-acceptance on the other side.

LOCATION: This event will take place in the English Garden, in Monopteros area. Precise GPS location to be shared shortly before the event.

WHAT TO BRING: a blanket to sit on, and food / drinks you want to share with others.

WHAT WE'LL DO: In a small group we will take a deep look at the relationship between these two human needs, how they can (not?) enter in conflict with one another, and how to solve the conflicts.

Some of the questions we will tackle are:

• What does personal growth mean to you?
• In what areas do you or would you like to pursue growth?
• Do you see a contradiction or conflict between personal growth and inner peace or self-acceptance?
• Which of the two do you value more?
• In your culture of origin, which of the two is given more importance to?
• Does one come at the expenense of the other? Or can the two go hand in hand with one another
• How can both of them be pursued in a non-contradictory way?
