In Defence of Negativity

This is the title of a recent blog/article from Shannon Harvey, Australian producer of the wonderful film The Connection. I also recommend joining Shannon's email list - she sends about one newsletter a month, and no junk mail as far as I can tell.

I really like this article, because I talk a LOT about how our brains are constantly dragging us down into negativity, always looking out for danger, and expecting the worst. This article points out the positive and useful side of negativity in a really useful way.

It's another balancing act between extremes - just like "moderation in everything", you'll find a healthy point somewhere in the center.
