Let's FLIP all your thinking. All of it

Today's Impossible: Anything you're thinking, FLIP IT! As if you had a toggle switch.

GENEROSITY - Here's conventional wisdom: Success makes you happy. Happiness permits you to be generous. (FLIP IT !) It actually works like this: Generosity makes you happy. Happy people are more likely to be successful." - Seth Godin

HANDLING HATERS - "The self-delusion in question is that we do nice things to people we like and bad things to those we dislike. (FLIP IT!) But what the psychology behind the effect reveals is quite the opposite, a reverse-engineering of attitudes that takes place as we grow to like people for whom we do nice things and dislike those to whom we are unkind." - David McRaney

ACTIONS > OBSERVATIONS > EXPLANATIONS > BELIEFS > ATTITUDES

"For many things, your attitudes came from actions that led to observations that led to explanations that led to beliefs. Your actions tend to chisel away at the raw marble of your persona, carving into being the self you experience from day to day. It doesn’t feel that way, though. To conscious experience, it feels as if you were the one holding the chisel, motivated by existing thoughts and beliefs. It feels as though the person wearing your pants performed actions consistent with your established character, yet there is plenty of research suggesting otherwise. (FLIP IT!)The things you do often create the things you believe." David McRaney

LOVE - Lovers are happy people (Flip it !) Happy people make the best lovers - Yours truly :)
