ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT EMBRACE YOUR CAPACITY FOR GROWTH
In a fast-changing world, it’s easy to get bogged down in self- doubt and negativity. Mindset coaching, a new route to self- improvement, applies psychological tools to instill a more upbeat, hopeful attitude toward life. Mindset coaching helps people break away from habitual negative thinking and behaviors that prevent them from seeing and reaching their potential. It is a relatively new field that evolved from two influential bodies of research — cognitive psychology, which helps
It’s important to understand that mindset coaches are not therapists, nor are they licensed or regulated. Interested individuals should seek a qualified coach trained and certified by a reputable coaching organization. The training equips mindset coaches with tools to help clients cultivate resilience and positivity, including mindfulness, journaling, visualizing achievements, and cognitive restructuring or replacing negative thought patterns with more realistic, balanced views. Mindset coaches also help clients uproot limiting beliefs about themselves and reduce their fear of being evaluated negatively by others. For example, mindset coaching might help a software engineer struggling with self-doubt and fear of failure to reframe their thinking and view criticism as constructive feedback to help improve their skills. Also, a manager striving for a promotion might learn to value their skills and cultivate a belief in their ability to expand and acquire new competencies. Ultimately, clients are taught to reframe life as a journey of self-discovery and learning — a mindset so empowering that it can change lives!

patterns, and the work of psychologist Carol Dweck on “growth mindset,” a perspective that teaches people they can change and develop through effort and learning.
Secrets of the Silent Tombs Inside the Pyramids of Giza
Few monuments have perplexed historians — and spurred on conspiracy theorists — more than the Pyramids of Giza. Still standing after more than 4,500 years, these extraordinary tombs offer insight into ancient humanity’s ingenuity and the culture of ancient Egypt. Naturally, their existence has led to extensive investigations into their origins, purpose, and, of course, more than a few wild (and sometimes otherworldly) theories. Guidance for Gods Most people today create an estate plan to determine what happens to their most cherished possessions upon their deaths. However, pharaohs — the rulers of ancient Egypt — adhered to the practice of taking everything with them to the afterlife. Pyramids were built as tombs pointing toward the gods and contained items that would help ensure a pharaoh’s safe journey
after death as they transcended their earthly existence and became gods.
Building Legends The first of three major pyramids built at Giza was also the largest. Construction began around 2550 B.C. at the behest of Pharaoh Khufu. Standing nearly 500 feet above the plateau, the pyramid is constructed of more than 2 million stone blocks weighing between 2.5 and 15 tons each. The second pyramid was built circa 2520 B.C. for Khufu’s son, Khafre, whose burial site also includes the world- renowned Sphinx. The third and smallest Giza pyramid was constructed circa 2490 B.C. for Khafre’s son, Menkaure. Architecture From Aliens? Scientists and architectural experts have marveled at the pyramids’ precise designs for centuries, leading many to question how builders created these monuments
so perfectly so long ago. One theory suggested that aliens — not humans — formulated and implemented the pyramids’ layout and construction. While this conclusion inspires many sci-fi movies, scientists believe the pyramids were created using copper drills, saws, and chisels held in human palms and were most likely not the handiwork of industrious extraterrestrial beings.
