Tell Empowering Stories: Optimism
“How you interpret and make sense of events is a juncture point where emotional resilience increases or depletes. You make the choice about what story to tell. When you tell empowering stories, your optimism may expand, and optimism is a key trait of resilient people.” p. 69~Onward by Elena Aguilar
Distorted Thinking undermines our well-being. It includes: Black and White Thinking, Jumping to Conclusions, Unrealistic Expectations, Disqualifying the Positive, Overgeneralizing, Catastrophizing, Emotional Reasoning, Personalization ~p. 76-77
“The stories we craft predict our futures, encapsulate our legacies, and impact our resilience.” ~p. 93
