Day 4: #OTWeek2023 Occupational Therapy volunteering. Volunteering as an OT is an awesome experience and a great way to learn about how OT can be used in non traditional healthcare settings. @Missionmotorspt @woodland_experi @revslimiter

#OTWeek2023 at KGH! We got all the teams together to have a go at some of our OT Ax’s we would typically carry out with our patients - including cognition, upper limb, gross motor and fine motor skills! A great way to get everyone together 💚⭐️🥳 @theRCOT

Making a cup of tea is a top occupation for people in the UK. ☕ But, what's the correct way to make your brew?

Another post about the difference between thinking like an "expert" & an "explorer". An expert starts from a place of knowing a lot about the topic ("expertise"). That leads to conviction about the right thing to do, confirmation & desirability bias & validation of the current way of thinking. An explorer starts from a place of humility (appreciating there is a lot they don't know). This leads to doubt, curiosity & a stronger likelihood of discovery & breakthrough thinking. Graphic adapted from one by @anujmagazine.

In the age of big data, trusting our intuition for decision making is often poorly regarded. Yet studies show that pairing gut feelings with analytical thinking helps us make better, faster, more accurate decisions. How to stop overthinking & trust your gut feelings:
1) Distinguish gut feeling from fear
2) Start by making minor decisions
3) Test out different choices
4) Try the "snap judgment test"
5) Fall back on your values
