Deep dives

Empowerment vs. Positive Thinking

Positive thinking is often misconstrued with empowerment. While positive thinking focuses on creating an expansive mindset, it fails to offer practical solutions for building a better life. Empowerment, on the other hand, involves understanding the mechanics of one's life and environment like an engineer would, which allows individuals to approach challenges effectively. By equipping oneself with knowledge about personal capabilities and external realities, people can create meaningful change in their lives.
