People will often say "You can't change other people." My research shows this societal belief is not only dis-empowering, it is scientifically false.

Social comparison that leads to unhappiness is the downside of social media.

Being in touch with the problems in the world or our lives is important, but even more important is to focus the brain on what we can do about them.

Starting our day off with a dose of negativity can have lasting effects.

Focusing on solutions fuels progress.

When someone comes to you to talk about a problem, if you move the conversation on to a discussion of potential solutions, you fuel their creative problem solving abilities on average by 20% - not to mention you make them feel better! You make them smarter and more empowered to tackle challenges.
