OT: PM: Econ, One can observe something as negative without being negative at the same time. :) I know from experience how operating from negativity is draining on one's energy and how it affects judgment. I'm pretty sure the reason I see negativity in others is because I ONLY operated from there most of my life. I am not judging it as bad now, I am simply aware of it. To be fair, reading someone's text is not the same as having a one to one conversation face to face or over the phone. I'm sure that whatever I felt from your posts was colored by my own imagination and where I was at the time I read it.
I would have responded with a PM instead of public, but the board only lets me send public replies.
I hope you didn't think I was attacking or telling you to change. I tried to word it so that I was pointing out negative traps one may fall into, not that I was annoyed with or upset at your posts, which would indicate my post was a negative take on your posts, which I am not. If you feel fine where your at and have low blood pressure when buying/selling then great. That's all one could hope for.
I recently attained my MA in psychology and know for a fact that being positive these last three years of my life has made an ENORMOUS impact in my day to day happiness and well being. Had you asked me more than three years ago, I would have said the same, "your outlook works for you, mine works for me..." It's only now, in hindsight that I would admit it was not working. Everyone is on their own path and none of them 'should' be the same. Just sharing what I've learned as an easier way to approach everything.
I know we both agree that Q is a good thing or we both wouldn't be here, right?
