Redefine Your Problems As Puzzles

from A Phil Svitek Podcast - A Series From Your 360 Creative Coach · host Phil Svitek

Learning expert Jim Kwik believes that if we knew how powerful our brains truly were, we’d not feed it negative thoughts because of how they take hold in our wiring. As an example of such a phenomenon, he learned to rephrase any perceived problem in life he encountered as a puzzle instead. The word problem leads us towards something we dread, are upset by, etc. But a puzzle invites us to a solution. A simple shift like this unlocks us. So, join me for this episode as I explore this notion fully. Afterwards, please be sure to comment with any thoughts or questions you may have. Or hit me up on social media @PhilSvitek. I’d love to hear from you!
