Name Calling

"A study done by Ross and Samuels (1993) found that the name given to a game has greater influence on the level of competitiveness that the individuals' personalities. They found that when participants played a game they believed to be called Wall Street they were much more competitive than their counterparts playing the same game, believing it was called Community Game. This is so fascinating because something as seemingly minor as the name of the game can override the members' personalities." - David Lieberman

How do we speak about this day, this happening or this person? Is it cloudy or is it warm? Is it challenge or opportunity? Is she stubborn or passionate? The names we choose to call things define our happiness.
