I generally agree with the advice. It’s common that any feeling and noticing said feeling begets the same feeling. But do know there is a duality to these feelings. You can make positives out of negatives and vice-versa. This teaches you that one simply cannot exist without the other. Although I’m a positive person in general, the negative balances us as human. I would argue that “cheerfulness” is the more ideal state of mind being this middle path between the two. It’s the idea of euthymia in which you live regularly without large shifts in mood. This is often referred to as the professional mindset where you get what you need to get done because you are largely unaffected by how you feel on a given day. This is where many of the cliche “Master your thoughts, master your life” quotes come from because it’s largely true once you experience it. At least my experience with it.
