Existence can be a bumpy road. Often it can feel like newly laid tarmac, while other times it can be a pot hole-filled country road. So, where does GPS come into that? Well, a good GPS service will try to get us to where we want to go via the best route possible, and that\u2019s also what we want from life, from a GPS Theory of life.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nGPS Vs GPS Theory Of Life<\/h2>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n
Unlike the scientific GPS (Global Positioning System<\/a><\/span>), which is a problem of geometry and time, because it does not simply \u201cknow\u201d where we are. Instead, it calculates our position by measuring how long it takes for radio signals to travel from space to our device, via atomic clocks and trilateration<\/a><\/span>. Whereas the GPS Theory of life is a concept, a philosophical and psychological framework for dealing with failure<\/a><\/span> and anxiety<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n
The GPS Theory of life is a popular mental model used in self-help and cognitive reframing<\/a><\/span>, which I first came across in a tweet, of all places.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\nThe Core Principles Of GPS Theory Of Life<\/h2>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nRadical acceptance<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe analogy: When you miss a motorway exit, Google Maps<\/a><\/span> or whatever GPS service we\u2019re using doesn\u2019t yell at us, call us stupid, or shut down. It simply says, \u201cRecalculating\u201d, or it does this automatically without saying anything. It does this without judgment, making it the \u201cNo judgment\u201d clause.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n
The lesson:\u00a0We often judge ourselves harshly for mistakes<\/a><\/span>, especially when compared<\/a><\/span> to other people. At least in my experience as a therapist. The GPS Theory of life suggests adopting neutrality. A mistake<\/a><\/span> is just data. It\u2019s nothing more than a coordinate change, and not a reflection of our worth. We all make mistakes<\/a><\/span>. There\u2019s not a person alive who has never made a mistake<\/a><\/span>. To err is human.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nResilience via \u201cRecalculating\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe analogy: When the GPS immediately looks for the next best available route from our current location. It doesn\u2019t waste time wishing you were still back at the previous turn.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\n
The lesson: This aligns with the psychological concept of Problem-Focused Coping<\/a><\/span>. There\u2019s no point in dwelling on what can\u2019t be changed. So, instead of dwelling on the mistake<\/a><\/span>, it\u2019s more helpful to immediately pivot to \u201cI am where I am, so what is the best move to get to my goal<\/a><\/span> from here?\u201d<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n
Simply put, we look for new ways to get us back on track, and that\u2019s basically all life is. There will always be road bumps and traffic jams in life, but that doesn\u2019t mean we pack in the journey. So don\u2019t lose ourselves to anger<\/a><\/span> and self-blame, and instead recalculate our next step (Lee<\/a><\/span>, 2021).<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nThe persistence of the destination<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe analogy: Taking a detour adds time, but it rarely makes the destination impossible to reach.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\n
The lesson: This addresses the fear<\/a><\/span> that one wrong move ruins a life plan. In reality, most goals<\/a><\/span> (career, relationships<\/a><\/span>, happiness<\/a><\/span>) can be reached through an infinite number of different paths. The timeline may change, but the destination remains valid.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nGPS Theory Of Life: Expect Detours<\/h2>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nFear of failure<\/strong><\/h4>\nOne of the biggest risks to reaching our destination is apprehension about the unknown, or potential setbacks, which can prevent us from taking the necessary risks and seizing opportunities. Life will also throw us countless amounts of curveballs, and it\u2019s how we respond to those, pick ourselves up, and get back on course that makes the difference.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\n
As the GPS theory of life teaches us, mistakes<\/a><\/span> are a normal part of being alive. So view all setbacks as learning experiences and opportunities for growth rather than insurmountable end points to our journey.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nLack of clarity<\/strong><\/h4>\nIf we\u2019re unsure of what our destination is, then that lack of a specific and clear vision can cause our goals<\/a><\/span> to become vague, making it difficult to create an actionable roadmap. We wouldn\u2019t just type in Paris, Tokyo, or LA as a destination into our GPS; we\u2019d use an exact address. The same applies in life. We need to work out what our goals<\/a><\/span> are and make them as clear as possible. A great way to do this is to apply SMART goals<\/a><\/span> to our goal<\/a><\/span> planning. This can also help with procrastination<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nNegative self-talk<\/strong><\/h4>\nOften, when we\u2019ve made a mistake<\/a><\/span>, our internal critic<\/a><\/span> will take the wheel and will sabotage<\/a><\/span> our happiness<\/a><\/span> and confidence, making progress difficult. But just like how GPS doesn\u2019t judge us, it just figures out our next step, the GPS Theory of Life also wants us to treat ourselves with the same non-judgmental attitude. To be kind<\/a><\/span> to ourselves. We often forget to be kind<\/a><\/span> to ourselves the way that matters most, and I don\u2019t mean buying ourselves a treat; I mean actually being kind<\/a><\/span> in how we talk to ourselves.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\nLack of support<\/strong><\/h4>\nThere\u2019s a reason why we all use GPS devices, and that\u2019s because we don\u2019t have the memory of a London Black Cabbie. For those that don\u2019t know, A Black Cab taxi driver in London, as with most cities in the UK, has to develop what they call \u2018The Knowledge\u2019, which in London means memorising 26,000 streets and thousands of points of interest across the city (Griesbauer, Manley, Wiener, and Spiers<\/a><\/span>, 2022). This became a requirement for Black Cabbies in 1865 (TfL<\/a><\/span>, n.d.). I couldn\u2019t even tell you how to get to the local supermarket that I use regularly.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n
For everyone else who doesn\u2019t want to dedicate years of their life to developing this cognitive map, asking for directions from our GPS is acceptable. But why stop there? If someone, something, or some organisation can help us get to where we want to go in life, then why not use that valuable resource?<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/h6>\n
Attempting to achieve significant goals<\/a><\/span> in isolation can be an uphill battle. A supportive social support network<\/a><\/span> is crucial for encouragement and accountability.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\nSummary<\/h2>\n\u00a0<\/h6>\n
The GPS Theory of life described in this article is basically a tool for emotional regulation. It encourages us to treat our life choices with the same mechanical, non-judgmental logic of a navigation computer: Error detected \u2192 Accept new position \u2192 Plot new course. It can be that simple for all of us.<\/p>\n
