How you phrase it affects how you think and act.

Another great article about how the symbols and metaphors we use influence behavior! People holding hot or chilled coffee rated people they read about as having warmer or colder personalities.  Reading about scary bacteria or not, influenced how people responded to the issue of immigration.

This is really making me think about how I phrase things, both to myself and to others. One I know I can do better on is saying "I have to. . ." First, that is rarely true. Second, a better way to say it is "I get to . . . ."

How about you?
