Why do some people seem magnetic while others just seem to repel people? Why are some people so happy, even at those way-too-early board meetings? The answer, while seemingly complicated, is actually very simple: that individual probably has a positive mindset.

In his book Positive Mindshift: Making Good Things Happen in Life and Work, Donald Sandel provides a roadmap to creating a better life through improving your mindset with positivity. Using science and real-life stories, Sandel asks the questions needed to accomplish this, including:

  • Are there health benefits to adapting a positive attitude?
  • How does one overcome negative biases?
  • Is happiness a choice?
  • Does positivity create better outcomes?


Sandel has dedicated this chapter of his life to creating a better world through mindset and attitude and now wants to share his insights with you. After all, why should we settle for each day being ordinary when it can be extraordinary?
