Why Don’t We Trust the Future? (Ep. 23)

from Let Yourself Off the Hook™ Hosted by Liam Naden

Most of us are worried about the future, rather than trusting that things will turn out for the best. Why are we naturally pessimistic rather than optimistic? In this episode Liam explains that it has nothing to do with our best intentions or wanting to “think positive” but it comes down to the use of a specific mechanism in our brain. When you change this, the future not only looks bright, but you make it so.
