Last week we heard from happiness expert Shawn Achor about how the lens we choose to view the world through can change not only our well-being, but those around us as well. In short, it’s the power of a positive mindset.

 

Today we continue the mindset talk with Shawn to help us find freedom in our thoughts and habits, and to train our brains to spot patterns of possibility—resulting in more opportunities and hope in our lives. This requires action, of course, so he includes four building blocks we can put into practice today to create change.
