The Power of Perspective - Keys to Win from Within
In difficult times it is so easy to focus on what we can’t control. The good news is when we engage our power of perspective we move from the victim at the mercy of an external force to an empowered person. When we focus on lack and engage with fear, we operate from a position of loss and discontent. Join Dale Smith Thomas as she guides you to use optimism as a strategy and teaches you to find the upside in a downside situation. Learn how to be the Hero of your own life and discover the greatest weapon against stress. When fear and stress run high, the need for courage and hope runs higher. The more pressure we are under the more deliberate we must be to prioritize what strengthens us. Join The Hope Doctor as she shares some prescriptions for a more positive life through the power of perspective.
