We are predisposed to react to threats. Actually, we are physiologically wired this way through reactionary evolutions to our past environment. For the better or worse, we have mastered our environment and tamed most of our direct threats. We kept a society driven with virtual threats which when set in the perspective of a whole makes little sense. Our organisation is the reflection of this physiology mecanic.
Therefore, we are prone to only react and pay attention to bad moments and while being inclined to receive chemical rewards upon pleasures if we don’t pay more attention to the positive aspects of our lives we would talk exclusively of our problems, yet they share a balance and your mission is to even it out. You don’t need much to express joy simply paying attention. Paying attention is simply acknowledging through any form. This trivial shower thought was simply the realization of the negativity vicious circle.
