When life has thrown you some serious curveballs or your mental health is declining, it’s tough to see the positive things going on around you.
But noticing the bad, however, is easy. You might find your brain automatically focuses on the worst thing that happened or it might constantly predict negative outcomes.
These kinds of thoughts affect how you feel and how you behave. If you aren’t careful, your thoughts can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Fortunately, there are steps you can take to look for the good in life by practicing toxic positivity.
