Incredibly thought-provoking article about the whole “positive-attitude” thang. I’ve ordered Barbara Ehrenreich’s book “Smile or Die: How Positive Thinking Fooled America and the World” and will see what impact its arguments have on this PMA-promoting coach.
At this stage I’d say that having a postive take on life is generally a good thing, but for those struggling with life-threatening diseases having it thrust at you all the time could easily become a condescending pain in the backside.
Food for considerable thought…
