Optical Emotions : The Nine Mental Models Through Which We Perceive the World

Optical Emotions examines the profound influence of our mindset on our thoughts, emotions, and actions. It emphasizes the role of emotional intelligence techniques in reshaping those mindsets, which can affect our daily interactions and persist long after they've become outdated. Through the use of the eyewear analogy, we explore how our deeply ingrained narratives and worldviews may not accurately represent reality, and how our outdated "lenses" may fail to see that we are out of alignment with our evolving needs. Through introspection and critical examination of our self-prescribed eyewear, we learn about our mental frameworks and discover how our emotions act as signifiers to help us identify and expand our mental models. Optical Emotions enables us to bridge the gap between our current mental models and our emotional intelligence skills, offering practical insights, behavioral choices, and uniquely specific exercises that can transform our perspective, fostering a more positive and empowered outlook in the world.
