The mind is an incredibly powerful force. It can propel us to achieve the seemingly impossible, yet also destroy our self-confidence and leave us wallowing in despair, and everything in between. How we approach a situation is what Austrian neurologist, psychiatrist, philosopher, author and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl calls “the last of human freedoms: the ability to choose one’s attitude in a given set of circumstances.” There are numerous techniques to help you intentionally adopt a mindset that serves you best in a given situation (e.g., meditation, power poses, daily affirmations, mantras, mindful breathing, prayer, coaching, etc.). Choose one (or more) that speaks to you and begin to harness the power between your ears. You will be amazed by the results.
