Visualization - it’s one of those terms that brings up a lot of connotations of woo woo hippie communities, spiritual practices, and the law of attraction. “If you want a better life just visualize it and manifest it!” (Eye roll) I’ve always been very skeptical of visualization practices and their ability to bring the future … Continue reading Why you should start practicing Visualization (as backed by scientific evidence)
A decision of one is never a good decision
I’ve recently implemented a mantra for my decision making process - “a decision of one is never a good decision.” What does this mean?
