A lens 2. COLOURING REALITY beliefs: judgment “I am weak” situation: crying is a sign of weakness judgment “I am weak” situation: crying because of pain

2. COLOURING REALITY Important note ” ” A judgment often says more about the person who makes the judgment than about the person about whom the judgment is made. Note that the nature of attention is really important here: open and non-judgmental. Otherwise this definition would be very close to a definition of simple concentration.

2. COLOURING REALITY Ridge & Reber (2010) simulation: job interview ; 60 men (interviewers), 60 women (applicants) manipulation of info: female applicant is/is not attracted to interviewer

2. COLOURING REALITY Ridge & Reber (2010) if interviewer believed that women felt attracted to them: more flirting behavior female applicants: more flirting when interviewer believed that they felt attracted to them

2. COLOURING REALITY Important note ” ” Thus, behavior is guided by the filter through which we look at reality. Note that the nature of attention is really important here: open and non-judgmental. Otherwise this definition would be very close to a definition of simple concentration.

They make life (experience) possible.

4 Limiting Reality

Judgments limit reality 4.LIMITING REALITY Judgments limit reality reality is extremely complex judging reduces reality by only focusing on 1 aspect we put something in a small “box” (e.g. “bad”, “loser”, “failure”) reality can only operate and move within the limits of this “box”

Exercise 4.LIMITING REALITY Recall a painful event or loss that you have experienced in your life. What were the most negative consequences of this event? Now focus on the positive aspects and how the experience has benefited you as a person. For instance, how has the experience made you better able to meet the challenges of the future? What did you learn from this experience? How have you changed or grown as a person as a result of the experience?

Reflection Exercise nothing is only good or bad 4.LIMITING REALITY Reflection Exercise nothing is only good or bad everything contains both sides by judging you ignore the endless complexity of a situation
