Here's this week's SMDP Mentor Moment
Staying positive in negative circumstances 

Life often throws unforeseen challenges that test our resolve and attitude. Whether it's a tough day at work, personal struggles, or a significant setback, staying positive can feel nearly impossible when you're surrounded by negativity. Yet, maintaining a positive mindset during these tough times is needed to get through each day. It’s more complex though than just putting on a brave face-you have to actively manage your emotions and shift your perspective. Sadly, many of us fall into negative thinking, allowing our circumstances to dictate our outlook, which only deepens our struggles.
