“Fight your brain’s negativity bias by appreciating and lingering on the tiny, positive moments you experience day-to-day.” ~Rick Hanson

Take a moment to consider these questions today ⬇️

➡️How many things can you consider as a win this week?

➡️How many things did you consider a failure this week?

If I were a bettin’ woman, I’d bet that you can think of a lot more failures than wins…

This is because humans are hardwired to focus on the negative. We have a negativity bias, and unfortunately, it causes us to place more emphasis on negative experiences than positive ones.

This might be why some of you don’t show up every week to celebrate your weekly small wins. If science is correct, you’re far more focused on what you did wrong than what you did right—and even if you can think of something you did well, you probably brush it off as “not good enough”...

Am I right or am I right?

While negativity bias is something we all probably struggle with to a degree, the good news is that it’s totally changeable because your brain is neuroplastic—but it doesn’t happen without you putting in some effort. If you want to change your brain to focus on the positive, you must start focusing on the positive—and that means you should start celebrating even the smallest of wins each week. 💯
