❔ Ask Yourself

What Are the Pitfalls of an “Either/Or” Mentality?

Absolutist thinking might be holding you back in relationships, work and personal growth.

Here’s how to break free:

  • Admit the tradeoffs in your most strongly-held beliefs.
  • Realize that reality is often more nuanced and complex.
  • Find at least one positive quality in people to improve interactions and lower stress.
