Join Us for a New Effective Student Mentoring Webinar with Dr. Gabriele Oettingen!

September 8, 2025 — “Think positive!” quotes are found everywhere, but contrary to popular belief, merely thinking positively about the future leads to low effort and little success. So, how can we conquer the perils of positive thinking?

In this webinar, Dr. Oettingen will highlight the science of mental contrasting, a strategy that operates beyond conscious awareness and can be applied independently in a cost- and time-efficient way to help individuals achieve their goals. She will also introduce WOOP (Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan), a proven self-regulatory tool especially effective when obstacles arise from strong impulses or emotions. Drawing from a wide body of research, Dr. Oettingen will showcase WOOP’s demonstrated impact on both everyday challenges and long-term development, emphasizing its effectiveness across ages, life domains, and diverse populations.
