When was the last time you announced you were tired? Or bored? Or overwhelmed?
How did that make you feel?
It’s likely that voicing the negative didn’t help much. It may have made you feel much worse. This is not to say you cannot vent – venting (in the right circumstances) can be really cleansing. Get rid of those negative emotions and leave them behind.
If you get stuck, however, in a pattern of seeing the glass half empty – the negative – you will find that you have less creative energy, zest for life, and ability to bounce back after the inevitable setbacks occur. You may feel overwhelmed by work, relationships, and life in general.
