Cognitive Distortions - Part 1 Don't have an all or nothing thinking. Stay positive! The following are a couple of examples of an all or nothing mindset: "I didn't get accepted into the university that I wanted so I'm a failure" or "I lost my election because people don't like me." All or nothing is the basis for perfectionism. Such thinking makes you feel worthless because of a failure or imperfection. Absolutes don't exist. If you force your experiences into absolute categories, you'll always be depressed because whatever you do will never measure up to your exaggerated expectations.

If you're facing a dispute or litigation, all you can do is present your side of what happened. After that, it's up to the trier of fact, whether it be a mediator, arbitrator, judge, or jury.

Accepting your vulnerability that you could die at any time is not something you may want to think about. However, there's a way you can make it positive. You could look at your future demise as the celebration of your life: (1) The people you've touched with your love and kind gestures; (2) The positive impact you've made on others through your work on a service or product; and (3) Beneficial content you've created for your loved ones and the greater community.
