367: Finding Best-Case Scenarios
\xa0
Did you know that our brains are wired to default to worst-case scenarios?\xa0 When we allow a worst-case mindset to take hold,\xa0 this can hold us back from taking risks and making changes necessary for an extraordinary life to unfold.\xa0
Host Tonya Leigh challenges listeners to play the role of their angel's advocate by focusing on best-case scenarios. Tonya shares her personal experience of making big changes in her business and how focusing on best-case scenarios has helped her overcome fear and create a better life. She explains the pain-pleasure principle and how visualizing best-case scenarios and associating pain with staying in the current situation can motivate us to take action. Tonya emphasizes the importance of self-image and how our expectations shape our future. She encourages listeners to imagine and believe in best-case scenarios, take action to confirm their beliefs and create a self-fulfilling prophecy.
