Episode notes
The article I'm referring to is written by Roy F. Baumeister and Ellen Bratzlavsky. They say the greater power of bad events over good ones is found in everyday events, major life events like trauma or close relationship outcomes. Bad emotions, bad parents, bad feedback have more impact than good ones. The self is more motivated to avoid bad self-definitions than to pursue good ones.
