6) Stinkin’ Thinkin’ – (250 words paper)

Over the next 7 days, pay attention to:

  • How often you say negative things
    • Complaining
    • “This sucks”, “this is dumb”, “I hate ______”, “FML”
  • How often you think negatively of yourself:
    • “I’m fat”, “I’m ugly”
    • “I’m so dumb”, “I’ll never be successful”, “no one likes me”
  • Each day, try to find at least one thing positive that happened or that you are grateful for. This could be anything from having a great best friend to seeing a cute dog on the way to class.

Paper: You needn’t be overly personal with the written portion. In short, what was this experience like? Were you surprised at your tendency to be a positive or negative person? If you found yourself being frequently negative, were you able to change your mindset once you noticed it?
