204: Feel like you can't do anything right?! Realign Overgeneralized Thinking in These 6 Simple Ways! (Magnificent Mondays Series, Part 2)

What is OVERGENERALIZATION?

Although this is one word, it has 2 parts: over and generalization.

"Over" means excessive in this case and "generalization" is a term that is extremely broad. It's when you excessively broaden any thought or conclusion--from one negative event you make a sweeping generalization about yourself or your situation.

For example, burning the toast goes to "I can never do anything right."

Generalizations can be kinda like stereotypes: "All Americans wear blue jeans."

Generalizing is taking one characteristic and applying it to all cases (which would hardly ever be true!)

Just like with all or nothing thinking, the words “always” and “never” “everything” and “nothing” come into play.

Tune in to this 2nd part in the Magnificent Mondays Series as I'll help you:

unpack the most common cognitive distortions
identify if you are plagued by these types of faulty thinking, and
put into play tips to help you move past this type of twisted thinking.

THEME VERSE from Phil 4: 8 Think about whatever is PRAISEWORTHY!
