An individual is said to be psychologically empowered when the individual has control and can make his/her own life choices, which is essential in present times. In this context, cognitive flexibility and self-control act as effective tools to regulate one's urges, be motivated and regulate the available resources in the most effective way, so that the individual can make successful life decisions and achieve the goals, while on other hand perseverative negative thinking hampers an individual's decision making and goal achievement, which is especially true in current times. Considering this aspect the purpose of the current study was to look at the connection between psychological empowerment, cognitive flexibility, perseverative thinking and self-control and to study the interaction of cognitive flexibility, perseverative thinking, and self-control concerning psychological empowerment in present times.
