Optimism Gym: 3 questions that cut procrastination and expand your future potential🌱

12 Oct 2025

Description

What if optimism isn’t personality but practice?  And what if it's the best practice to unlock your full potential?  We dive into a simple, repeatable way to build a more optimistic outlook—without fluff, forced positivity, or ignoring reality. Think of it like strength training for your mindset: small, consistent reps that shift how you see options, make decisions, and take action. Along the way, we connect the dots between optimism and procrastination, and why believing your effort matters is the difference between starting now and stalling out.  We break down two beliefs that power action—“I can handle this” and “this will be worth it”—and show how most of us inherited mental habits that over-index on risk. Then we offer a counterweight: 3 pragmatic questions you can use anywhere to reframe doom-and-gloom thinking into possibility.  What opportunity might be hiding here?  What’s one thing that could go right?  What small silver lining can I find?  Full Blog Here: https://angelashurina.posthaven.com/optimism-reps-cure-procrastination-3-questions-to-shift-your-doom-n-gloom-thinking-that-keeps-you-stuck  By running these questions for one minute at a time, you’ll train your attention to see hopes instead of only hazards, which changes your energy, your presence, and your results.  If this episode helps you -  share it with someone who could use a mental spotter, then subscribe, rate, and leave a short review so more people can find the show.  Your next rep starts now - what’s one thing that could go right?    Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant
