TPJ 72: From UNSURE to UNSHAKEABLE (3 Positive Mindset Shifts)
So many of us have been pushing through, waiting and hoping for things to return to some sort of “normal”. But with a second wave sweeping through the world it seems like it may never get back to normal. And now with the school year approaching and continued restrictions wherever we go, there’s no end to the opportunities to feel anxious, fearful, and overwhelmed.
In this episode I want to help you recommit, reenergize, and reinvigorate yourself, bolstering your resolve with 3 simple mindset shifts.
[05:58] If you're feeling frustrated, cooped up, judged, irritated, etc., you're not alone.
[08:13] How can we view everything through a more compassionate lens?
[09:21] I believe there's a better way to handle differences of opinion.
[17:11] Mindset #1: The benefit of the doubt.
[22:03] Mindset #2: Believe in yourself
[26:51] Mindset #3: Be the you that you want to be.
Rather than approaching things with anxiety, judgement, shame, and guilt, we can use these mindsets to come at things with love, grace, compassion, integrity, and make a positive impact on the world. Let's be the people who increase calmness, peace, and reason. People who promote a sense of togetherness instead of tearing us apart.
