The best way to stay positive when daily stressors are piling up.
The key to staying positive is a combination of living in the moment and planning for the future, new research finds.
Proactive planning is very effective at reducing stress.
Essentially, proactive planning means making plans for how to cope with inevitable problems.
For example, someone who knows they will be stuck inside all day makes themselves a schedule of activities to keep busy.
Similarly, a person who knows something will needlessly stress them out (say, the news) avoids it.
Although not every stressful event can be anticipated or ameliorated, many can.
