Uno degli interrogativi più pregnanti della moderna psicologia è quello inerente alle potenzialità umane: perché un individuo è più forte, più agile, più dinamico e creativo rispetto ad un altro pur avendo lo stesso quoziente intellettivo? Quali sono i fattori che rendono una persona meno vulnerabile allo sviluppo di condizioni di disagio psichico? Quali sono i fattori che rendono una persona più brillante ed efficace? Come si può accrescere il proprio talento, essere leader di se stessi? È questa la vera sfida della psicologia del positivo che, avendo superato i legami con il modello del patologico, si pone come paradigma fondamentale per lo sviluppo di stili di vita vincenti attraverso percorsi formativi innovativi. Il cambiamento di prospettiva è determinante e radicale; oggi si parte dal presupposto che la mente umana, nei suoi aspetti cognitivi ed emotivi, possieda le energie sufficienti allo sviluppo di personalità mature ed efficaci, con confini ben strutturati e un Io consapevole e forte. L’autoefficacia esprime le grandi potenzialità della mente umana di rappresentare se stessi in modo coerente, in un dinamismo continuo e positivo, in grado di rendere l’individuo resiliente, capace di autodeterminarsi rispetto alle difficoltà della vita quotidiana. La gestione dello stress si apre a nuove dimensioni, non appare più come una semplice “resistenza”alle avversità e alle difficoltà della vita, quanto una nuova modalità di gestirsi in termini proattivi, che porta ad avere una visione del mondo più positiva e ottimistica.
