Be a contrarian in the mental health space. What’s that?

After years of playing in the mental health space, one can’t help but notice certain repeating patterns in many folks. Many have this common tendency to “zoom in” on the unhelpful thoughts and feelings, and “zoom out” from the more helpful ones.

It’s almost like the stock market. People sell when they should buy, and buy when they should sell.

Be a contrarian in the mental health space perhaps.

“Zoom in” and be grateful for the positives, and “zoom out” from the negatives.

“Zoom in” on the things that matter deeply in the here and now, and “zoom out” from the things that doesn’t matter or those that we cannot change.  

We may just get the result that we want.....
