Fixers vs hopeless catastrophizers

https://youtu.be/ZtOxCJqEHjY?si=xYz-MuzoSTkgOew_


2:14 it's a learned relationship with uncertainty 3:34 uncertainty doesn't sound like a verdict to them is a starting point.*

0:41 self-efficacy...you are capable of handling what's in front of you

1:01 this belief changes how long someone pressure at a problem before giving up

2:17 internal locus of control...do better at fixing things...don't get depression...cope better with stress... They sense that their effort matters (which is a protective psychological trait)

5:51 spending time around people like that is one of the most recalibrating things you can do. 


*This reminds me of the podcast "Sitting with uncertainty" on Hidden Brain.
