I tend to be a glass half empty kind of person. That's not something I'm really all that proud of. My first reaction is to find the problems. So I am trying to make a conscious effort to find the good in situations. I do believe that you can find the good in most situations. Bad, crappy, unfair things are going to happen - sometimes more than we think is our fair share. but that just makes it more of a challenge to find the good things. And once I start highlighting the good, it becomes easier to focus on the good instead of the bad. Plus, I have a husband who can find the good in a pile of dog poo...most days.
It's kind of a personal challenge actually. When I start wanting to complain, I use that as a reminder to instead look for something positive.
I have this one customer at work, she is always so nice, so friendly - she is such a joy. I love when she comes in because we just chat for a minute and she reminds me that all is not lost. LOL Seriously, though, she inspires me to be better.
Are you a glass half empty or half full?
See you Soon

I can totally relate to what you have written. I have a tendency to imagine worst case scenario in any given situation. I don't really know why BUT I have been working to do the opposite and assume the best every time I have a chance even if I feel silly. It's like my new mantra!: Assume the best!! :)
