The document summarizes a Ted talk by Amy Cuddy about how our body language can affect our mindset. It discusses how adopting high-power poses where we expand our physical size for two minutes, such as standing with your hands on your hips, can increase risk-taking behavior. One study showed those who took high-power poses scored 60% on a risk tolerance test compared to 86% for low-power poses where our physical size is minimized. It concludes that our bodies can change our minds and behaviors, which then changes our outcomes, so we should experiment with different poses.
