Turning negatives into positives

Turning negatives into positives

Sometimes it can be helpful to turn our thinking around and begin to challenge the way we look at things. Turning negatives into positives is a way of doing this! Basically, think of something that happened today, this week, this month or at some other time that felt negative and see if you can find a positive in it (or that came out of it).

feel free to use this thread everyday if you like to help with your thoughts

heres mine

Negative: my mother calls me a psychopath
Positive: It gave me a chance to really think about my life and how to change it
