Think-positive

Humans are terrible at thinking about the negative state. We have trouble to think about the absence of something; that thing that is not there; the event that has never happened; the opportunity that did not exist. We are not designed to think about the negative, since there is a lot more that not is, in contrast to what is.

Our daily thinking is directed to the positive, since it allows us to proceed, act and plan. It is simpler to proceed after something IS. Most people can imagine the coffee one will drink in the morning and the consequence for doing so: we will be awake and warm after we drank the coffee, ready for whatever. If we do not drink the coffee, nothing happens…​ now what?
