Episode 58: The AND Mindset

So much is happening right now. You might feel overwhelmed from all the things.

When you’re stressed, it’s a natural response to see everything as zero sum. You can get caught up in either/or, which limits you.

Find the AND. In research, this is called a paradox mindset, which means accepting the both/and of the situation. This is the reality of life: Things may feel competing or in tension, but you can reframe your approach to see how they integrate.

You can find happiness even in difficult times.
You can find joy even through challenge.
You can love something and still be exhausted from it.
You can walk into the discomfort to get comfortable.
You can be grateful and ambitious.

This episode provides tips for how to integrate two seemingly competing truths and build to a mindset of abundance. The sooner you accept this paradox, the sooner you can thrive.

Your One Bold Move: Find the AND in the moment you’re in. Accept that you can hold true more than one thing and believe in possibility. Share this possibility with others, too.
