Ep 97. The Unexpected Benefits of Pessimistic Thinking
Description
Why haven't we evolved to be eternally optimistic if optimistic thinking is so much better?
The answer, like all things in nature, is that nothing is inherently good or bad, and the trick is to learn balance and have the ability to make best use of these different ways of thinking, depending on the requirements of the situation.
This week I explore the benefits of Pessimistic Thinking (and offer a recap of that means for those who missed the last two episodes).
If you have a natural tendency towards pessimistic thinking, this episode may help you harness the power that comes with it and build greater resilience for the moments when you need to take big leaps into the unknown in your efforts to achieve your biggest goals.
