As for the positive/negative thinking, well I had advice from an old manager - he said the best bit of advice he could give us if we don't want to feel miserable, is to not read the Daily Mail.
Now this might seem like a bit of a joke, but he was serious, and so am I. That particular paper, and even they will admit this, it exists to sell to a certain part of the readership. It will predict gloom for the economy, it will blame various ills on "Johnny Foreigner", and it will also take great delight in trawling up every so often an end of the world story - be it asteroids, superbugs, supervolcanos, Man City winning the premiership..........that sort of thing.
It really is a tatty little rag, and you're frankly better off reading any other paper, which although they will print rubbish, it isn't actively designed to play on people's fears of crime, the economy etc.
Your call, I'm afraid I still read the online pages, my bad
