-----------------
Three Happy Things
Unfortunately, people often get into a pessimistic mood where they can only see the failures and problems with their life. This can cause people to experience stress [ For more on 'stress' go here: http://www.braingle.com/mind/739.html ] and its many negative side effects [ For more on 'negative side effects' go here: http://www.braingle.com/mind/566.html ].
One way to become more optimistic is to take a few minutes at the end of each day to think about the good things that happened. These don't have to be big events; it could be as simple as having a good sandwich for lunch. Record three of these happy things in a notebook, which you can review whenever you need a pick-me-up.
If you practice this exercise every day, you will get into the habit of recognizing the positive events in your life and forgetting the negatives.
