What Is a Negative Attitude?

The way that we attend to it is really what mindfulness is about because you have to deconstruct it. Our thoughts cause our feelings, they are not separate beings. We do not have emotions out of the blue. They are caused by the thoughts that we have. So if these are automatic, that means that we are automatically putting ourselves in positions to be overwhelmed, scared, nervous, feeling unfair. That's ant one. Ant two is when you have a tendency to disregard the positives in your life. And so I call it ignoring the positive.
