Geek Psychology: Play Life Better

If you’re new to Geek Psychology, my name is Matt Sherman. People call me Sherman. I'm a personality type expert, life coach, hypnotist, author, podcaster, and course creator. I help mainly INFPs embrace their unique strengths and navigate life's challenges. Through practical strategies and deep insights, I aim to help people like you live a more fulfilling and authentic live where you can wake up and feel good about who you are and your impact on the world.
I'm a big proponent of positive thinking, karma, and the Law of Attraction. It's part of my life philosophy, no doubt about that. But in this video, I explore why it's not quite enough just to think positive thoughts if you want to change the world for the better.
It is a commonly held belief that positive thinking leads to success. That by thinking positively, we can achieve anything. To a certain extent, this is true... but only by taking action. By actually doing the things that are needed to make our dreams a reality. This also applies to real life as well - if you think you're going to lose your job and don't act on it, it will likely come true. If you think you're going to succeed in business and take action to make it happen, it's just as likely that you'll achieve success.
But wait! There's more...
The thing is that a positive attitude is not an action. Create a positive mindset and then live into the actions required to create the outcome you want.
