Try new things. Experiencing a wide variety of life will do wonders. Stepping out of your comfort zone can often take you by surprise and knock those negative generalizations and black and white thoughts right back into their cave. Something as simple as trying a new food in a restaurant can lead to the discovery of new tastes and different sensations, along with the release of negative prior impressions. Here are some other new things that can help put a positive spin on your life: •Take an acting class. This is a great way to express yourself and move out of your comfort zone.
•Visit a new town, city, or country and see how other people view the world.
•Read a novel in a genre you've never considered before.
•Learn a new skill, such as knitting.
•Take up learning an instrument, do sudoku, or learn a new language.
