Summary: When you are playing a game, should you let your child win? It’s a question every adult asks themselves. If you beat them will it hurt their self-esteem? Listen and hear some interesting thoughts on that question. Also, how you see the world has a lot to do with your perception. How you interpret events is unique and different from everyone else. Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler, author of the book, Perceptual Intelligence: The Brain’s Secret to Seeing Past Illusion, Misperception and Self-Deception (http://amzn.to/2zQQKEN  explains how you can control, alter and improve your perception to help you see the world as it really is. Plus, could you be doing things that cause people to NOT like you? There are several behaviors, including a few you may be doing on Facebook, that can be real turn-offs to others. And how resilient are you? Probably a lot more resilient than you think you are. Andrew Zolli, author of the book, Resilience: Why Things Bounce Back (http://amzn.to/2zQFzfi) explores how resilience works and what allows most of us to bounce back – but others to stay stuck.
