We can work on being more positive by creating a gratitude list and writing down all the positive things in our lives. Another suggestion is to use thought stopping when you find yourself fixating on the negative and reframe your thinking to be more constructive and rational. Sometimes giving ourselves permission to be negative for a time-limited period (10-15 minutes) before moving to the positive can be helpful. Journaling can be beneficial in an effort to dispute our negative thoughts and replace them with positive ones. Being positive is less difficult when you surround yourself with mostly positive people.
