Have you noticed that your mind tends to register the negative events in your life more than the positive?
If you get 10 compliments in a day and one criticism, what do you remember?
For most people, it's the criticism.
Scientists call this "negativity bias" - primitive survival wiring that causes us to pay more attention to the negative than the positive.
To reverse this bias, get into the habit of consciously registering the positive around you: the sun on your skin, the taste of a favorite food, a smile or kind word from a co-worker or friend.
Then take a moment to savor it deeply and feel it.
Make it more than a brief mental observation. Spend 20 seconds soaking up the happiness you feel.
