Accessing Superior States of Mind for Optimal Decision Making!

She had COVID. Didn't work for 25 days. Came to uP! still carrying that inertia — already worrying that she wouldn't be able to keep up. Then she was popping pills at every break. By the end of the session, she was talking herself off the medication. Not because she was told to. Because something in the state she had accessed was making the old state — the anxious, depleted one — feel unnecessary. Superior states of mind are not the absence of difficulty — they are the presence of a quality of inner resource that makes difficulty navigable. Antano and Harini install access to these states as the foundation of optimal decision-making: not through positive thinking, but through restructuring the internal system so that resourceful states are the ones that arise automatically in the contexts where they are most needed. When the state is right, the decisions that follow are right.
