answer:Welcome to ask-public. I’m not a “professional,” but I’ll offer my opinion. I’m an eternal pessimist. I always expect the worst, most frustrating outcome from every endeavor. Many call it negative. I call it realistic. The good news is that this style of thinking prepares me for the worst. I try and think three steps ahead in life. I envision what can go wrong, and if it happens, I’m better suited to deal with it. My pessimism keeps me well prepared for when life comes at me. This thinking must be balanced though. I laugh a lot. I’m easily amused, and entertained. I try and be really serious when the situation calls for it, but I try to be jovial otherwise. I’m afraid I can’t tell you how to not think this way. IMO. Seeing things this way indicates that you are intelligent. (Ignorance is bliss, awareness is the opposite. ) So ,at least you aren’t stupid… I find that people need a way to get away from the negative things in life. For me it’s playing guitar, or fishing in my canoe. For others it’s surfing,or painting,or golf…. Having something that you can kind of get lost in is important. It eases your stress level by taking your attention. It makes the rest of your life seem less stressful. If you’re less stressed, you’re less likely to only see negative. And more able to understand what makes you happy, so that you can pursue such things… If you are financially able, you could seek advice from a therapist. They’ve never been my style, but they can be quite effective for others. Either way, good luck. Peace n love.
