I have noticed that so much in life is negative!!!

• what we point out about others
• what we watch on the TV
• the way we are taught
• what we read in the newspaper

walking down the street the things and people you pass do you see the good things or do you look at the bad? Do you see people outfits that don’t go together, if they are over weight, are they under weight, do they have a bad hair style, how unclean the streets are or how many paving slabs are broken?

How are we taught at school? Did your teachers point out to you what you had done right or what you had done wrong? If I wrote a list of 10 words and one was spelt wrong, would you say to me well done you got 9 out of 10 right? or would you say errrr you spelt that wrong? So many of the things we point out to others are how they have done something bad, why? because this is how we are taught, so we are programed to think this is the only way we can teach, but this is not true.

The things we read in the papers! Well I can’t remember the last time I picked up a paper and there was a positive story on the front page. This is nothing to do with all the people working for the paper being negative and depressing it’s what sells the papers. Why do we love to read about how many people have been killed and how many have been burgled in your local area, wouldn’t it be uplifting to read about how many people have helped there neighbors, and reach a goal they have been working towards, or have achieved  something great. Rather than how many shops are closing down how many are opening.

The TV programs that get good ratings are what? X factor, Jerry Springer, dancing on Ice, Jeromy Kyle ect ask yourself what are they about? what bits do you most enjoy? I am guilty of it too I only watch the auditions of xfactor too see the bad people and to see what Simin Cowell is going to say bout them. Dancing on Ice I only noticed this while watching the other day, I thought I was watching to see them doing the dances on the ice (I do aswell) however I was laughing at how bad Kerry was and then waited to hear what the judges said about her and of course it wasn’t good. Often in these competitions some untalented people get votes to keep them in as how did Waner do so well on the x factor?

Today try and see how many positive things you can see, a beautiful view, someone who has achived something great.

I hope you have a happy and positive day

P.S What ever happened to the good things that used to be broad casted at the end of the news,
