What do you think?
I was talking to the mother of a boy that I’m coaching at the moment… he struggles with anxiety and always thinks through every scenario that can happen.
He’ll get so worried about bad things happening that he ends up almost paralyzed, unable to take on anything beyond normal routines… and even they can be difficult at times.
As I discussed his issues with his mother, trying to find some possible reasons for her son’s beliefs, all became clear…
“Well…”, she said, “I guess we’re both very similar… I always expect the worst and hope for the best in everything I do…”.
And, of course, she has imparted that belief on her son.
So, how do you view life?
I know it’s an old cliché, but is the glass half empty or half full, for you?
Or maybe, you have a completely different perspective…
