And I feel that we are far more powerful than we believe because I see a lot of people have like protective mechanisms because they think that they aren't mentally strong enough when we really are totally like , that's such a great point too . And I wish that as Children we were taught , like , better coping skills and , right , because we're not , we're really not , we're not taught how to emotionally regulate or be cognitively agile or how to pivot or reframe . Right .
Like you're right . That , that's the other sort of challenging opportunity is to recognize sort of the filters that we have on our own eyes and perception of the world and how we often just are getting back precisely obviously what we're putting out . But sometimes we're not even , it's not even that sometimes we just think we're getting back what we're putting , right ?
Like I had , I was like , I was like , you just walk down that street with purpose like , you know , it when I really want to just like , don't look at me , I don't want to look at me . But like when you just say like I've got this like , I'm OK , I'm confident because it's a freaking mental game . And that's why I was curious to hear more about the science of happiness .
So it's pretty incredible . And I feel that we are far more powerful than we believe because I see a lot of people have like protective mechanisms because they think that they aren't mentally strong enough when we really are totally like , that's such a great point too . And I wish that as Children we were taught , like , better coping skills and , right , because we're not , we're really not , we're not taught how to emotionally regulate or be cognitively agile or how to pivot or reframe .
Yeah . So , um you know , there's a lot to be said there , Amy Cutty does great work um around that whole sort of idea of like sort of taking on um the mentality and even the physicality of someone who you think would be confident . So another version of yourself , right ?
