Many individuals tend to pay a lot of attention to certain kinds of information and no attention to other kinds of information. Most importantly, when people are feeling down, anxious or stressed, they tend to pay more attention to information that confirms their negative thoughts than to information that challenges their negative thoughts. For example, an individual may pay more attention to the one person who doesn’t have time to talk to them and less attention to the five people who stopped to talk to them.
So the challenge is to try and start paying attention to the positives. This is a strategy to help increase positive thinking and is transferable across many life contexts.
How many times have you focused on the negative? Have you caught yourself doing so?
Feel free to comment on this and how you have been tracking yourself.
Think positive, a lot of good things happen in our day to day life, we should start paying attention to them.
