@kwamenegotiates: Choose Your Lens Life is a constant stream of interpretations. Most people default to the negative lens. They see criticism where there’s feedback. They find rejection where there’s redirection. I choose differently. When faced with ambiguity, I ask: “Which interpretation serves my growth?” “What is the most empowering way I can see this?” Not what is comfortable? Not what protects my ego? Not what makes me feel like a victim when I could see myself as a champion? This isn’t about denying reality. It’s about amplifying possibility. This isn’t toxic positivity. This is strategic perception. It’s not about ignoring red flags. It’s about improving my life’s quality. I acknowledge reality, including systemic challenges. Then I choose the perspective that gives me agency. The world doesn’t change. But my experience of it transforms. My relationships deepen. My opportunities multiply. My mental energy conserves itself for what matters. This mindset isn’t about ignoring problems. It’s about approaching them with power rather than defeat. What situation could you reinterpret today? ##fyp##mindsetshift##growthmindset##selfmastery##blackexcellence##blackmindset##melaninmagic##pocmentalhealth##strategicthinking##emotionalintelligence##selfgrowth##innerstrength##healingjourney##reclaimyourpower##mentalwealth##blackleaders##chooseyourlens##levelup##resilientminds##perspectiveiskey##Entrepreneurship##Growth##Leadership##GrowthMindset##Psychology##Negotiation##MelRobbins##Vulnerability
People are always looking to be offended and it causes so many unnecessary situations.

Love this. When I was in police academy years ago they showed us a video of a young black man running and told us to interpret it. After we were done, they showed us he was running for a bus, then separate running from friends, etc.

When you are not sure about people’s intention, assume it is good.

You mean, you don’t live as a victim. Perfect, more people need to adopt that mindset.

We know structural disparities and inequities exist. And at the same time this is a lesson in giving individuals the benefit of the doubt in small moments of engagement. It can make a difference.

There’s a TikTok where a guy says never attribute to malice what could be incompetence.

interpretation and assumption...2 things we need to look at this way!!!
we can assume people should act, react in a certain way, because that is what we would do....but they are not us and don't have to think or act like us for life to still be ok.
