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).

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