Education:Self-Improvement
You SHOULD stop saying the word SHOULD immediately if you want a near-instant boost to your mental health and creativity.
That's the recommendation from psychotherapist Dr. Ron Alexander.
Dr. Alexander is a go-to mindset shifter for clients including Apple, Universal Pictures, Sony Entertainment and Microsoft.
He's also the author of Core Creativity: The Mindful Way to Unlock your Creative Self.

Dr. Alexander has a simple tip that provides a lot of us relief.
Stop saying the word should.
He calls it the most stressful word in the English language.
Dr. Alexander says the word should is harmful because "it implies you are wasting time or doing things that aren't important instead of what you 'should' be doing."
You can stay out of the stress zone and get a near-instant positivity boost by using different self-talk.
