Is Positivity Bias a Trick? All-In August #8

It's All-In August!

Training Your Brain to Look for the Bright Side Takes Work

But it's the secret to becoming healthier, feeling better, and being happier. People who learn to look at every situation and look for some hope or possibility have incredible resilience, better neurochemistry, and are more effective and successful in every measurable way.

Here's a talk about why it matters, and how you can get there. 

Scripture: Philippians 4:6-8

Book mentioned: You, Happier by Daniel Amen

Textooks for All-In August:

All In, by Mark Batterson, Turning Pro by Steven Pressfield, Hope Is the First Dose by me, The One Thing by Gary Keller, and Play the Man by Mark Batterson

Scripture for the Month: II Corinthians 5:14-17, Luke 9:23-25, Galatians 5:22-23, I Corinthians 2:16
