#Edutwitter, do you find yourself fixating on criticism more than compliments?

The negativity bias means negative events tend to have a greater impact on our brains than positive ones leading to us making them seem much more important than they really are... (1/4)
So on Flipping Friday I challenge you to notice this negativity bias in action and ask yourself some questions...

It probably wasn& #39;t 100% negative and there will be positives aspects if you look for them.

Instead of fixating on past mistakes that can& #39;t now be changed, considering what you& #39;ve learned and how you& #39;ve grown from the experience will help you feel more positive about the future.

Look around you, reflect and focus on the positives you are grateful for. When something great happens, take a moment to really focus on it and commit those wonderful feelings to memory.

Enjoy flipping!
