7 Weird Life-Changing Skills That Will Make You Happier [+How to build them]

Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement

Some of the most important life skills sound strange to work on. But high-performers work on them anyway.

From building your curiosity and enthusiasm to a better sense of humour. Several life skills make all the difference in your social and professional life. We'll even learn essential ideas that make us happier, more patient and more right. Yes, that's a thing.

What's odd is that society says many things like our interests and humour are just part of who we are. We feel ashamed to want to work on becoming more unique. That is a fixed mindset approach.

We embrace our weird side and do our own thing. Become the black sheep that doesn't follow the herd and build skills that make us truly unique, memorable, and happy on our terms.
