Adaptability. If we can’t adapt, it’s almost certain that any significant change we may experience could end up causing a negative impact on our lives.
Negativity. It could very well be the most harmful stimuli we impose on ourselves. We are hardwired for negativity, we feel it’s sting much more than positive praise.
The past traumas of my childhood still linger to this day. I remember those experiences more than positive ones. It’s how my brain is wired, and probably how your’s is too.
What can I do to prevent negativity from creeping in and possibly ruining my day? First, take a more mindful approach and realize that it’s there. Pay extra attention when good things happen. Take a few minutes to think on the good feelings from the experience. Do this several times.
And try to always tell yourself that tomorrow will bring more wonderful feelings from all the good things that will happen. Having more positive feelings than negative ones gives you a positive outlook on life.
