For years, we’ve been told to “choose happiness” and “manifest good vibes”—but what if we simply chose to care slightly less? Experts now confirm that you don’t need to be positive—just tone down the emotional outbursts enough to function.

“Forcing yourself to be happy all the time is exhausting,” said Dr. Emily Crawford, a psychologist who has personally threatened to fight at least three motivational speakers. “Instead of pretending everything is fine, just aim for ‘mildly tolerable.’ It’s life-changing.”

This groundbreaking new approach—known as Slightly Less Negative Thinking™—has already transformed lives.

✅ Instead of “I’m grateful for this challenge,” try “This is annoying, but whatever.”
✅ Instead of “Every setback is a lesson,” try “I don’t care to learn from this.”
✅ Instead of “I attract good energy,” try “At least today isn’t worse than yesterday.”

“We’re not saying people should be negative all the time,” Dr. Crawford clarified. “Just… complain 30% less and call it self-improvement.”

Are You Ready to Embrace Slightly Less Negative Thinking?

Signs include:
☑ No longer threatening to quit your job every morning—just twice a week.
☑ Complaining, but with 20% fewer dramatic hand gestures.
☑ Only internally screaming when someone says “everything happens for a reason.”

“Not everything is a blessing in disguise,” Dr. Crawford reminds us. “Sometimes it’s just bullshit. And that’s fine.”
