A pop-up is not a failure—it is a normal part of pickleball. But your brain may treat it like a threat, thanks to an ancient survival instinct called negativity bias. Once you recognize that, you can stop overreacting and start responding with perspective because not every rustle in the grass is a tiger.Show Notes: https://betterpickleball.com/243-avoiding-negativity-bias/

Negativity Bias - ein Begriff aus der Psychologie - kommt aus dem Englischen und bedeutet soviel wie Negativitätsverzerrung oder Negativitätsdominanz. Menschen nehmen negative Nachrichten, Emotionen und Erlebnisse äußerst intensiv wahr und lassen sich von ihnen stärker beeinflussen als von positiven Wahrnehmungen. Diese Negativitätsverzerrung, die besonders in Krisen- und Kriegszeiten zu beobachten ist, ist vermutlich evolutionär in uns angelegt. Denn wir sind darauf programmiert, Gefahren frühzeitig zu erkennen, um uns vor ihnen zu schützen. Heutzutage erscheint dieser evolutionär begründete Mechanismus jedoch fatal, da wir dazu neigen, vielgezeigte und auch medial intensiv präsentierte Schrecken wie z.B. einen Terroranschlag oder Flugzeugabsturz vom Gefahrenpotential her zu überschätzen. Der Medienwissenschaftler Prof. Bernhard Pörksen spricht sich deshalb für einen produktiven Umgang mit dem Phänomen Negativity Bias aus - Faktizität statt Negativität.

As humans, we tend to be impacted much more by negative events than by positive ones.How Negativity Bias Impacts Your LifeHow often do you focus on bad news,revisit awkward conversations from your past or fixate on minor mistakes we made?Whether we realize it or not, negativity bias affects us daily.Simply having an unpleasant exchange with a stranger in the morning can ruin the rest of the day,preventing us from noticing the positives.In the long-term, negativity bias, when left unchecked, can contribute to issues such as:Low self-esteem and self-confidenceA feeling of hopelessness and helplessnessAnticipatory anxiety (excessive worrying about the future)Depressive statesRuminating (being stuck in a vicious cycle of negative thoughts and feelings regarding one's past)Poor decision-makingRelationship struggles (trust issues, holding a grudge, etc.)

Send us a textIn this episode of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah and Eda, Rabbi Mendel Kalmenson, author of Positivity Bias, A Time to Heal, and On Purpose, explores the deeper meaning of positivity and purpose through the lens of the Lubavitcher Rebbe's teachings. Drawing from his extensive study of the Rebbe's wisdom, Rabbi Kalmenson challenges the common notion that positivity is naïve, reframing it instead as positive theology—a perspective that reveals the deeper truth of reality rather than just a mindset shift.He shares powerful insights on overcoming negativity bias, finding meaning in life's struggles, and discovering one's unique purpose. He explains how our talents, passions, personality traits, and even our greatest challenges are clues to our mission in this world. Through compelling stories and real-life examples, he illustrates how personal hardships can lead to transformation, how we can shift from survival mode to thriving, and why the Rebbe's teachings are more relevant today than ever.Rabbi Kalmenson's work is rooted in his deep exploration of the Rebbe's guidance, distilling its profound messages into practical wisdom for today's world. Whether discussing healing, resilience, or personal growth, he brings to life the Rebbe's perspective on how every individual has a vital role to play in the grand purpose of creation.→ Watch the full episode: https://youtu.be/mM5l_ZYi-ug GUEST BIORABBI MENDEL KALMENSON Rabbi Mendel Kalmenson is the rabbi of Beit Baruch and executive director of Chabad of Belgravia, London, where he lives with his wife, Chana, and children.Mendel was an editor at the Judaism Website - Chabad.org, and is also the author of the popular books Seeds of Wisdom, Positivity Bias, A Time to Heal, and most recently: On Purpose: Practical Wisdom for Designing a Life of Purpose.You can find Rabbi Kalmenson at his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002923444353COMMUNITYJoin the Community!

Are you truly making the most of your time, or just keeping yourself busy? Be honest—how often do you end the day feeling exhausted, yet unsure if you actually got anything meaningful done? Burnout sneaks up before you even realize it. Procrastination convinces you there's always tomorrow. And just when you start making progress, imposter syndrome whispers, Are you even good enough? But what if the issue isn't just your workload? What if it's how you approach it? Imagine a version of productivity that isn't about grinding harder but working smarter—one that embraces motivation, self-care, and a mindset shift that turns obstacles into opportunities. In this episode of Productivity Smarts, Gerald J. Leonard chats with Deborah Mallow, self-improvement expert and author of Six Steps to Fewer Days That Suck. Together, they dive into the psychology of productivity, breaking free from negativity bias, and the power of reframing mistakes as growth opportunities. In this episode you will walk away with practical strategies to boost your efficiency and well-being—because success shouldn't come at the cost of your sanity. What We Discuss [02:01] Introduction to Deborah Mallow [06:26] Overcoming burnout [08:32] The journey to self-discovery [11:21] Writing as healing [15:15] Understanding procrastination [17:26] Rewards and accomplishments [19:40] Productivity and happiness [21:27] Negativity bias and its origins [22:35] Overcoming negative biases [24:40] Understanding imposter syndrome [25:45] Reframing failure as growth [28:19] Embracing the journey of becoming Notable Quotes [00:10:18] “I was overwhelmed, I was exhausted, I was just feeling beside myself. I didn't know what to do, and somehow divine intervention, a voice said to me, my inner voice said to me, my intuition, if you don't stop and you don't make a change, nothing's going to happen, and this is going to be your life, and you will die.” – Deborah [00:12:42] “Even if we know what we should do, we don't always do it. We don't honor our dignity, value our self-worth, value ourselves. We need to value ourselves and treat ourselves with care and with love.” – Deborah [00:24:52] “Everybody struggles with imposter syndrome. Once you realize that, you just have to give it up.” – Deborah [00:27:00] “Imposter syndrome might be there, but we have to slowly work through it. Just make your mistakes and see them as opportunities.” – Deborah [00:29:37] “The most important thing is self-pride.

Send Wilk a text with your feedback!Radical Moderation: Breaking Free from Binary ThinkingMy guest this week is Lauren Hall, a professor of political science, an author, and a thought leader whose work challenges the rigid, binary ways we often think about personal, social, and political issues. She's written extensively on the medicalization of birth and death, the politics of family, and the crucial need for what she calls radical moderation—a framework that moves beyond “us versus them” thinking and embraces the full complexity of human experience.Lauren's approach introduces a four-dimensional way of understanding our world—one that demands humility, curiosity, and a recognition that real solutions exist beyond the false choices we're so often given. In a time when civil discourse feels like a lost art, her work reminds us of the power of pluralism, gratitude, and the willingness to engage with perspectives outside of our own echo chambers.Beyond her academic work, Lauren is yet another of my fellow advisors for the ProHuman Foundation, a group committed to fostering open and honest conversations about the issues that shape our lives. In this episode, we'll explore the dangers of negativity bias, the importance of lived experience, and how practicing radical moderation can help us bridge the divides that seem to grow wider every day.TakeawaysRadical moderation challenges binary thinking in society.Understanding different dimensions of experience is crucial.Lived experiences shape our perspectives and judgments.Negativity bias affects how we perceive the world.Gratitude can enhance our understanding of others.Trade-offs are inherent in every decision we make.Complexity in social issues requires humility and curiosity.Pluralism acknowledges the diversity of human experiences.Engaging in civil discourse can bridge divides.We share a common humanity despite our differences.Learn more about and connect with Lauren K.

She discusses how our brains amplify fears around social rejection and self-doubt, making it seem difficult or even threatening to choose an alcohol-free lifestyle. Terry shares practical, science-backed techniques to counter this negativity bias, helping listeners reframe their thoughts and build confidence. From gratitude practices to visualization exercises, she outlines steps to shift focus from fears of missing out to the benefits of an Alcohol Free Lifestyle.

What is actually happening in your brain when you're in a stressed-out state of mind?Even though stress has become an inescapable part of daily life, that doesn't mean all stress is bad. You need a certain amount of stress to reach a state of productivity and focus. But your brain registers negative information more than positive. That's why it's important to learn how to combat stress effectively so that it doesn't harm your nervous system and brain.I'm excited to welcome Nicole Vignola to our show today. Nicole is a neuroscientist and organizational consultant who makes neuroscience tangible for the masses. She's here to talk about her brand-new book, Rewire: Break the Cycle, Alter Your Thoughts, and Create Lasting Change.It might be a surprise, but you're not hard-wired to stay in specific thought patterns. Your brain has plasticity that makes it capable of redesigning new neural pathways based on your choices. But if you always give in to an urge, you're going to reinforce your response to that behavior.

Fear and frustration about Social Security's future are spreading like wildfire, especially during election seasons. Politicians have intensified these concerns, warning that Social Security will go broke by 2035. This has left many, especially younger workers, feeling bitter and anxious about their financial futures. Stories of individuals doubting they'll ever see the benefits of their contributions highlight a growing sense of hopelessness. However, experts assure that a complete collapse is highly unlikely, with payroll taxes continuing to fund most benefits. Cognitive biases like the Availability Heuristic, Confirmation Bias, and Negativity Bias are at work, making these alarming statements seem more believable and widespread. It's essential to navigate these fears with accurate information and not let alarmist rhetoric dictate our financial planning.A podcast that blends the nuts and bolts of financial advice with the emotions that drive making them.Rick Kahler, CFP®, CFT-I™, has helped people make better money decisions by integrating financial planning. He blends the nuts and bolts of financial advice with the emotions that drive making them and shares them on his financial therapy podcast.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Jamil Zaki, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Stanford University, director of the Stanford Social Neuroscience Laboratory, and the author of the new book Hope for Cynics. We discuss cynicism and its healthier, more adaptive alternative, healthy skepticism, and how embracing healthy skepticism can enhance both our emotional and physical health. We discuss the data on how cynicism affects us as individuals and in relationships, causing lower levels of happiness, poorer physical health, and reduced creativity, trust, and collaboration. He also explains novel data-supported tools that we can use to shift ourselves towards a more informed yet more positive worldview and how to adopt a mindset of “hopeful skepticism” — the ideal stance to navigate life.  Dr. Zaki offers listeners a positive, hopeful view of humanity grounded in cutting-edge research from his laboratory and other top laboratories. He also offers science-supported protocols to navigate relationships in person and online better.  Access the full show notes, including referenced articles, books, people mentioned, and additional resources at hubermanlab.com.

"We Are What We See." This revelation is not just a simple observation but a doorway to understanding the immense power that lies within our grasp, the power of perception. Our minds are like mirrors, reflecting the world within and around us. But these mirrors are unique – they do not merely reflect; they alter, they distort, they magnify. What we see is not just the world as it is, but the world as we are. Our fears, our hopes, our dreams, our traumas – they all tint the glass of our perceptions. Our perceptions are like a prism, refracting the light of reality into a spectrum of experiences. These perceptions shape our understanding of the world, coloring our thoughts, emotions, and actions. They can illuminate our paths with hope and clarity or cast shadows of doubt and fear. The key here is to realize that these perceptions are within our control. They are malleable, adaptable, and subject to our will. Let us embrace this powerful realization: "We Are What We WANT To See." Let us recognize and harness the creative power of our perception. Let us intentionally craft our vision, focus on our desires, and open our minds to the limitless possibilities. Our reality is ours to shape, our world ours to craft, through the power of what we choose to see. 

We're getting toward the end of the year, and it's a great opportunity to evaluate where we are and where we'd like to go. On today's episode, Dr. Rick and Forrest explore how we can step out of the way we've been, and into a new way of thinking, doing, and being. They talk about self-concept, unconscious beliefs, and how those beliefs affect our behavior. Forrest then shares a model of what this kind of change tends to look like practically, which usually includes relax our attachment to the things that are holding us back. Other topics include getting down to "the tip of the root," taking a step back from our narratives, challenging limiting beliefs, taking life less personally, working with discouragement, and finding motivation and drive. You can watch this episode on YouTube.Key Topics:0:00: Introduction1:30: Self-concept, how unconscious beliefs affect behavior, and freedom5:40: Appraisals and attributions9:35: The way we spin our self-narrative, and holding onto grievances14:25: Being honest with ourselves when we feel stuck19:30: Changing behavior before changing thinking25:15: Values and behaviors29:05: Underlying fears and practical confusion33:50: Taking your experiences less personally36:05: Finding the motivation to get our hands dirty41:30: Negativity bias and appreciative inquiry47:45: First steps when you're feeling discouraged56:55: RecapSupport the Podcast: We're now on Patreon!
