How to Overcome Negativity Bias

Episode 3: Overcoming Negativity Bias.
A bias is a preference for one particular thing, when we’re given the choice between two or more things of equal value.
A Negativity Bias means that even if we’re exposed to both negative and positive experiences, the negative experience has a greater impact on us.
Here’s a few practical examples:

1. Not everything went to plan.
   
2. Too trivial to celebrate
   
3. It's just daily routine
   
4. I don't need to celebrate serving others
5. Partially completed goals
   
   

That’s five practical examples of how we filter positive moments. Being more mindful of these five things, will help you add more joy to each day, by celebrating things that others might overlook. Maybe you have other examples that you’d like to share, I’d love to hear them. Message me on the website or comment on this podcast.
