I found this in a blog post a month or so ago and have been holding onto it. Today, Boss said something extremely mean to me, so the time is right. I'm not asking for sympathy or insults to her, I'm just trying to stay positive.

This one's a bit more abstract, but still important, I think. Start keeping a file or folder – whether digital or physical – that contains all the compliments you receive from friends, family, and even strangers. It's so easy to forget the nice things people say about you, because they're often outweighed by negative comments that stick in your head more easily.

If you're having trouble coming up with material for this "compliment bank," ask 10 of your closest pals what they think your 3 best qualities are.

I also stole this from milly_gal, big_heart_june and fireheart13 because I'm a right little tea-leaf!

I think this is a great idea, I'm really enjoying visiting my friends' posts and giving them a bit of a boost!

We could all do with a little positivity in our lives from time to time, and the comradeship of my lovely f/listies here is one of the things that makes my life such an awesome one!

There's no pressure to comment, please only do so if you really want to. I'm screening all comments!
