A common thinking
trap is Black or White Thinking. This is also known as All or None
Thinking. We unintentionally cheat our ability to experience a
great deal of happiness, by engaging in this type of thinking. It's
a type of viewing things, as either one way or the other. "A person
is either ugly or beautiful!" "A person is either on program or
not!" There are no shades of gray, there is no in between, it's all
either good or bad. In therapy we discuss how to understand the
continuum that exists. We explore how to find and embrace the gray,
or middle ground in life.
