Jason Silva on Positive Thinking | Brain Games

we all know that positive thinking is
integral to our well-being there’s a
great line that says we don’t see the
world as it is we see the world as we
are in other words we bring to every
experience our prior thought formations
our attitudes our beliefs our culture
and these these patterns of thinking
these filters that we bring to every
situation color our experience of the
world this is the power of positive
thinking that we can decide how to map
our experience and I love that so no
matter what happens you’re putting the
dots together and deciding this is a
good thing this challenging moment is an
opportunity to reinvent myself
this difficult intense experience this
stressful instance is a chance for me to
test my limit in fact science tells us
that even just something as simple as
deciding to smile can trigger all kinds
of endorphins it actually can boost our
moods our thoughts shape our world and
in turn our experience of the world can
then shape our thoughts and it can
create this kind of self amplifying
optimism feedback loop which i think is
fascinating so I think you guys are
going to enjoy this episode very much
the power of positive thinking don’t
miss it
