I have been training for almost a decade to flag all experiences as positive. It works; things that were objectively bad (chemo, having covid, getting robbed, business partner stealing money from the company, horrible clients etc) are all positive memories in my head. The only thing that I couldn’t manage was my dogs death; he was mauled to death by a pitbull right in front of me. I used to be quite a negative person and many earlier memories that were not that terrible are all giving me over the top bad feelings: when my grandfather died, I was wallowing so much in negativity that I decided to stop doing that once and for all. It works: live feels very positive and nice even though it of course often is not.
