"Hanson’s book (a sort of self-help manual grounded in research on learning and brain structure) doesn’t suggest that we avoid dwelling on negative experiences altogether—that would be impossible. Instead, he advocates training our brains to appreciate positive experiences when we do have them, by taking the time to focus on them and install them in the brain."
It is easy to forget how good we have it rather than watching for the next shoe to fall. Rick Hanson posits that that is due to the way we are wired; a necessity for survival.
