How to Overcome Negative Bias

ARCHITECTING Podcast - Career + Lifestyle Mentoring for Architects looking to move beyond overwhelm and make a difference through design

Just because negative bias is a survival mechanism hardwired into your biology doesn't mean it's serving you. That's because the things you fear in modern life are a threat to your ego not your life. Listen in to learn how to train your brain to tell the difference so you can ditch lack based thinking and start thriving.

1. A sign you're experiencing negative bias is a desire to fix something you fell isn't working "right." That focus on struggle and lack keeps you from seeing what is working right and celebrating the wins.
2. Fear of being judged causes you to do and say what you think will make someone else happy. That is a self betrayal and it creates an inauthentic connection - a facade it takes energy to maintain while denying your own fulfillment and happiness.
3. Fear of someone else failing causes you to micromanage their life. That deprives the person from learning about healthy failure and from their own growth.
4. Fear of your own failure keeps you focused on maintaining what you have instead of getting what you want.
5. Overcome negative bias by making the desired outcome (not your ego) the star of the show.
