In this episode we talk about why positive thinking isn’t enough and how power thinking can make a huge difference in your life regardless of your goal.

The Difference between positive thinking & power thinking

  • positive thinking: framing your thoughts in a positive manner despite any doubt and disbelief in your rational mind or your heart
  • power thinking: choosing to frame a situation in a way that is both useful & empowering to you
    • based on premise that everything is neutral & we choose to assign values or emotions every event and circumstance
