T HE REASON for writing Mind Shift is to destroy our internal limitations. Erwin Raphael McManus begins by reflecting on a statement he once heard, “Some people are simply structured for failure.” Based on our thoughts, we are structured or wired to behave within certain frequencies.

Getting rid of coal power and switching to cleaner sources like wind and solar energy is a big way for governments all around the world to fight climate change and protect the environment. These clean energy technologies have become big enough to replace a lot of the energy we get from coal power plants. Plus, scientists are working hard to figure out how to store energy from these sources when we need it, even if the wind isn’t blowing or the sun isn’t shining.

As prophesied in the months that just passed, return-to-office policies are claiming more companies slowly and it seems employees are just as reluctant to return as predictions said they would be.
