In this episode of the Daily Flow Podcast, we explore a concept introduced by Martin Seligman in his book "Flourish," focusing on how we are hardwired for negativity. This intriguing psychological phenomenon explains why our minds often gravitate towards negative thoughts and memories more powerfully than positive ones. We delve into the evolutionary reasons behind this bias, its impact on our daily lives, and strategies to counteract its effects for a more balanced and positive mindset.
