Utilize the "Yes, and..." Thinking

We all have the habit where we think negatively about something and it's like a reflex or a force of habit. Instead of repetitively sticking to the story of "this isn"t possible" we should develop the skill that most improv actors use, the "yes, and..." thinking.

This skill allows us to accept the concrete reality of the given situation and then build upon it, by seeing what we can improve, changed, or added. Moreover, it dismantles limiting beliefs that we have within ourselves while further cultivating flexibility for forward thinking.
