Takeaways
Every decision is filtered by our irrationality. Our brain is primarily focused on survival. All or nothing thinking can lead to unhappiness. The choice of words significantly impacts our mindset. We need to give people the benefit of the doubt. Emotional reasoning often stems from childhood experiences. 'Should' statements can create unrealistic expectations. Awareness of filters can help reduce anxiety. We can't see ourselves in the picture; others can help us grow. We all face challenges that can hold us back.
